Re: Extreme Case Looking for a Cure!
Thanks alot for your support. I understand how tough it is for you to see your daughter go through this. I too see the pain my mom goes through when I'm recovering from a flare up. I've had eczema since day one. I've had it throughout grammar school, elementary (worse eczema ever), and high school. I have scars on top of scars. Having eczema is not something any child should grow up having.
I'd like to help you with my own personal experience. Since it's difficult to detox ur daughter's system since she is so young. As far as natural cures go, I still feel that moisturizing is crucial. I really recommend "Aquaphor for Babies", which i'm sure you've heard about. I like Aquaphor much more than Eucerin.
Also make sure you never use fabric softener for her clothes and use very little detergent. I was at my brother's house and by just only using a towel (w/ fabric softener) to dry my skin, my skin became dry as a reptile. For bathing use gentle soap, such as Johnson & Johnson Original with no fragrance or Dove Sensitive Skin. Quick baths in luke warm water than slightly toweling her and moisturizing right after. Also stay away from using a heater or air conditioner in your house cause it really dries out skin.
This is all I can help for now since she is so young. I'm sure you've done a lot of research and have a lot of information. But everything I just said I extremely recommend and once she gets a bit older all the natural cures should be safe for her.
I wish your daughter good luck and I really respect the care your giving her.
