i dont no if u can use on a baby but lidocaine is good for that

@MrRaven64 Probably not a good idea. But, thanks for your input anyway.

oh God have mercy. My heart just breaks when I saw this-geez. I will be praying for your child

@countofmonetcristo80 This is not my child, but your prayers for the child are appreciated.  Thanks.

There are plenty of good web pages on the Internet that discusses this condition. However, you should ask to see a dermatologist if possible.

Please moisturize his skin... I feel his pain.., smh run it for him or something... Don't let him scratch.. Please!!!

Poor baby! I've had skin problems my whole life and it isn't a matter of telling a child not to scratch.  When I was a child the intense itching was enough to make me scratch to the point that I would bleed. There is hope for a pre-pubescent child, though. My bro and I both saw our excema symptoms diminish greatly after puberty. In the mean time, benedryl itch stopping gel is a life saver! ! ! Stops hives and itchy skin on contact.

i'm 15 years old, brazilian, this is a rare ill? Because the dermatitis still in my body, this hurts a lot when u go shower, I usually scream, but this child will be better, i don't know if that child or even me will be fully cured, but the eczemas just get small than that one, when i was a baby i was like that. Now i just have the eczemas in my elbow, knee, and neck. My knee eczemas are huges and hurts, but the other ones are just bearable.

Get a script from your doctor called Derma Smooth FS body oil. Apply on wet skin. It is the ONLY thing that has alleviated my child's eczema.
