Eczema / dermatitis: Atopic eczema / dermatitis: see http://www.eczema.org/emollients, ask MD to consider rxs for an emollient [e.g. Aqua Care 10 % topical cream] which can be used frequently as needed and a topical steroid cream [e.g. fluticasone 0.05 % topical cream] to be use sparingly as excessive steroid use causes the skin to thin and form micro-capillaries. Avoid too much sun, hydrate and apply sunscreen.
