My 7 yr old dd (SW) also has eczema, and has had it since she was a baby. We use a cleanser called Spectro-Gel, as well as 1% hydrocortisone cream on the affected areas. Our best bet, though, is to keep her away from things that set it off - in her case grass, certain laundry soaps, anything perfumed like handcreams or herbal (including aloe!), rabbits ... to name a few. Each child is different, it seems. We were told to keep the area well moisterized when healing, and it seems to work, although finding one that didn’t exasperate the problem wasn’t easy.

We have never stress dosed for eczema ... she would spend much of the spring and summer stress dosed, if we did!
