At first we thought his rosy cheeks were down to his teething and spending alot of time outdoors on walks but now his teething has subsided and we still have bright red cheeks. They seem extremely dry and he also gets little spots which i assume are eczema on his forehead when he wears a hat and on his chin, although this may be linked to dribble. Is it likely he will always have this and can anyone recommend a cream to reduce the dryness and redness?
sorry guido i meant to give you a thumbs up not down x x wont let me change it sorry x

My husband has eczema and asthma, but I don’t have either of those conditions. I am pregnant with our first child. How likely is it that our baby will have either or both of these?

My doctor said to bathe her with Dove soap and use this cream, but wanted to know if anyone knew about this and had more suggestions….

I don’t know what to do. It doesn’t itch anymore but I still get little pus things all over my chest and it is spreading to my belly button

my eczema was just confined to the joints – the folds of the arm, back of the legs, neck sometimes.
but how come it suddenly appeared on my finger webs?

My daughter is 4 months old I am afraid she might have ezcema. Back of her arms have rash and it’s dry, also under her chin has rash. I am not sure if it’s eczema but I am afraid it might be. WE have an appointment with her doc in a month but I wanted to know how to recognize eczema in babies. I’ve been bathing her daily so the dryness might have contributed to the baths… Can babies this young scratch their skin if it itchs cuz I heard when babies have eczema they scratch a lot. I am terrified because I have a friend whose son has eczema and she goes through a lot of hardship with his diet. I think he’s got extreme one though. So what are the signs to recognize if it’s indeed eczema???
Oh about the rash on her neck, she drools a lot and spits a lot when she eats so maybe the spitting and milk irritates her skin.. Could this be the reason?

My hair is currently 5-6 cm long all around and I have recently been diagnosed with eczema of the scalp, after a few days of using betnovate scalp application I have noticed an increased amount of hair loss as I am washing my hair more because the application makes my hair very greasy. Would cutting my hair short help it grow back or just leave me with more prominant bald patches?
Help!!!

I really hate being touched and stuff due to my like rough skin. So yeah im 15 and i dont know how to make my skin softer since its like normally been rough since i was a baby. I started using Calcon Body Wash the other day and its okay but i dont really notice much of a difference.
Any ideas?

I have dry eczema skin on my face but I also have black heads on my nose and white heads on my chin and forehead. Would it be okay to use it or would it make my skin worse and drier?

i have pretty mild eczema; i have always had it and im nearly 20.
it is almost exclusive to my neck and inside of my arms, but occasionally get little bits on backs of my knees and other places but its never bad there.
its almost always on my arms/neck to some extent.
so heres the thing, i go to the doctor for cream (i had a steroid cream before in a small tube and i found it did a good job – apparently bad for skin in long term though – so i wanted it again) but he gave me a big pump of stuff, i have had these big pumps before and i have always found they really irritate my skin.
they dont make the eczema flare up, it just starts to itch really badly and i innevitably scratch it.
why is this? surely im not allergic to the cream?
oh and my eczema ALWAYS gets pretty red and angry looking when i have been exercising/sweating – why is this and how can i prevent it?
are there any other treatments for mild eczema?
thanks
