    Hi guys.

    Do you know anybody who has the cure for eczema in babies? We have literally tried everything prescribed by GP and over the counter. Thanks in advance

    Have you asked for a referral to a Pediatrician, or a Dermatologist. That would be my next step.

    What have you tried ? How strong was the steroid? How often are you moisturizing ? Are you using wraps ? Who was Gp ? As said would you not consider referral to paeds/derm ?

    It sounds like they're looking for some auld lad who claims to be a seventh son of a seventh son to lick the babies face and make the problem go away. Not actual, practical solutions.

    They are friends of ours and they have tried all prescribed meds and over the counter creams etc, now looking for a natural remedy or yes, even "some auld lad who claims to be a seventh son of a seventh son", they will travel anywhere rather than let their child suffer.
