A member asked:

My 22 month old daughter has eczema, and we use cetaphil lotion and body wash, but she scratches the back of her head. what shampoo should i use?

Itchy scalp: I've found that aveeno (oatmeal) makes great products for eczema. The key is to use hypoallergenic products with minimal alcohol. Try to find products which are colorless and without perfume.
