[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 2 yo has eczema year around, but it's way worse in the heat. I mentioned it to her pediatrician and she said that either cold or heat can trigger it. I spot treat with steroid cream and lather her up with Aquafor twice a day - even with no outbreaks, I have to stay on top of it. [/quote] + 1. We are military and my poor child always meets with some random ped at a military base, but one day, one of the peds could relate - he had a kid with eczema. He said the trick is you have to do the routine every day, even when there are no outbreaks. I have found that skipping even one day results in symptoms. We use vanicream and a steroid cream, and I do try to limit the steroid cream to active outbreaks. [/quote]
