I have an 8 year old who has spent a lot of time in wet wraps,or long sleeved/long length trousers/gloves, he is fine now except for the odd dry patch,I never thought the day would come to see clear skin. I also have a 3 year old who has also had eczema from birth, I\'m more optimistic now, I get support from health visitors, local eczema support group,and if people stare I put them wise, creaming is made fun by having magic gloves/socks(tubifast)even teddy gets to wear some!ask your healthvisitor/ doctor for your local support group contact,remember you are not alone.
