IT WORKS FOR Eczema!

Eczema ATTENTION! IT WORKS! My baby has been struggling with neurodermatitis since the third month. Just one cheek, his neck and behind his knees. I went crazy on an elimination diet (he is breastfed), no nuts, no dairy, no gluten, no chocolate. I still avoid dairy and gluten, but sometimes I can eat a little. I even put myself on a salicylate diet. I tried Aveeno, special balms, made a lotion, changed soaps and shampoos, except for milk baths and mixing breast milk into the lotion every day, nothing really brought a stable result. I myself have eczema (common in Asians) and didn't want to put him on constant steroids (what they don't tell you is they thin the skin, give inconsistent results, inflame the endocrine system, etc. and you end up taking steroids) . more and more) I've used it a couple of times when it was really bad: it looked like he'd been slapped to the throat. But this lotion mixed with some breast milk (I even forget it sometimes and it still works!) was a game changer after 3 days, his cheek was healed and not even pink let alone red. It also works on my eczema patches on my hands. I always get a finger cleft when I'm in a hurry and don't put on gloves to do the dishes... this happens a lot with an 8 month old baby. Nothing else has worked for so long with such stable results! We also bought body lotion! This plus bamboo clothing changed the world! This area of the collar rubbed against his overly sensitive baby skin. Not even organic cotton helped. So we switched to bamboo pajamas first, and gradually switched to bamboo clothes. It's a bit more expensive, but it's worth it! We're just keeping some dark cotton t-shirts for lunch. We even bought him a bamboo handkerchief to wear under his bibs because he ripped them off and got annoyed when we put them on. With handkerchief and lotion... it lasts! We've been using it for over a week now and he no longer scratches his neck and his cheeks are completely clear! Sooo happy!
