A member asked:
My son has had mild eczema since infancy, he's now struggling with contact dermatitis and has big raised breakouts on his elbows and legs & it's itchy?

Topical steroid : I would suggest adding a topical steroid to the worst areas, an antihistamine for children for itchiness. A moisturizer without fragrance may be used several times per day. Sometimes eczema is related to food allergies, and noting any worsening following certain foods is also important to identify.
