[quote=Anonymous]I think you need a dermatologist and a steroid cream to really get rid of it. I understand wanting to stay away from strong medications on an infant, believe me, but my 3 month old had such terrible eczema that we had to do it. It's better to use a little bit of stronger medicine to get it under control than to have the eczema go on and on. My DD needed two rounds of oral antibiotics because her skin was broken and infected. I also went on an elimination diet but didn't see any noticeable difference. We use Locoid and triamcinolone. After we started the 2nd stronger steroid (triamcinolone), her skin cleared the next day! Now, if we see a red spot, we can keep it under control and prevent it from getting worse by using the Locoid. [/quote]
