I had bad excema when I was born until I was 3. My mother tried every approach. She then, by a recommendation from a friend, took me off of dairy products. It cleared up within a week she says. I havent had it until now. I am now 27 and have been eating dairy again for a couple of years. It returned, and I decided to try getting off of dairy. It cleared up in a couple of days. Now when I eat any dairy I can expect within 6-12 hours to have an \'outbreak\'...
I hope this helps! Give it a try...
