not sure...

is it possible that my ds, who is almost 3, just got his first out break of eczema?

i noticed a bit over a hour ago he had a red rash all around his neck, i just observed him to see if he was affected him. about 5-10 minutes after i realised he started scratching it. so i decided to put Nappy rash cream on it (i had no other creams to use). he still scratching. it hasn't bothered him besides the itching. and when i felt the rash it was warm (cooled down since putting cream on)

i can't think of what else it could be. and only reason i think of it is because both and my mum had eczema, mum still gets hers and mine hasn't flared up in about 10 years. but i remember mine use to itch, but not sure if it felt warm or not.

sorry if it don't make sense but i am on my mobile

is possible DD1 had it from 6months but DD2 just got her 1st outbreak and is 4 yrs old so could b i'd take 2 docs 2moro if possible just 2 b sure but definitely possible

Possible.

My girls were 14 months before their first brake out.

We use QV Intensive to keep them cool, moist & itch free. They end up slippery as all get out but it works

i'll try and get him in but if i can't i'll take him to the chemist they are normally really helpful

You may find you need to see a dermatologist to get an action plan in place.

I didnt get my excema until I was a teenager and my parents made me wash the dishes every night, after 3 months my hands where so craced, dried and itchy and I am also very sensitive to cortizon (spl) creams and they used to hold me down whilst they put it on my open weeping wounds (it was torture :gloomy: ) and then make me wash the dishes again :rolleyes:

I still get break outs 12 years later from certain soaps and can not wash dishes every night without my hands becoming cracked again :no:

DD also got her first sign of it at 3 months, 1 week after I stopped breastfeeding :crying:

he woke up last night rash was completely gone from his neck but than was on his stomach, so i opted for the Nappy rash cream again. woken up this morning and its completely gone. when/if he flares up again i'll take him to the hospital and they will get me straight into our doctor.

mine use to flare up with perfum so i avoid it altogether.
