As if young children didn’t have enough to go through when they are born, there is eczema to worry about. Unfortunately, atopic dermatitis (or infantile eczema) affects many young children, especially babies, causing rashes that are itchy and uncomfortable. Even older children can be struck by this affliction which irritates both them and their parents.

Usually, baby eczema develops on a child when they are just a couple of months old. The eczema will appear as red and itchy skin, or as small bumps on the face. Of course the eczema is not limited to these areas as it can spread as a red and irritated rash to legs, arms, and back which will become an open sore if not treated quickly and correctly. Another common form of eczema appears in the infant’s arm creases or behind the knees and the backs of ankles and wrists.

You can see why baby eczema is so irritating for infants, especially since they are so tiny, unable to speak and tell their parents how they feel. The torment from the baby eczema will likely cause the child to cry and or course the constant crying can be irritating for the parent.

There is good news however regarding baby eczema. First of all there are creams and treatments available for baby eczema so if you suspect your child has this condition you should definitely consult their physician. Secondly, over half of infants who have baby eczema will be totally over it within a few years.

There are even environmental changes you can make that can help lessen you child’s eczema, such as avoiding certain foods and using mild laundry detergent. The internet is a great resource to find out information on what causes eczema and how to treat and prevent it.
