QUOTE(keylargo @ Jul 22 2019, 11:40 AM) use isoderm for bathing or showering. may i know if the cream have steroid? i can try to ask my family to get it for me for skin care, i use to get the cream from famous clinic (Klinik Balkhis, Kota Bharu). Still haven't figure out the cream they use, mostly see the staff bancuh the cream by mixing of other products. so far the skin cream suitable for my son. |

QUOTE(lil_flank @ Aug 15 2019, 09:18 AM) Recently we just found out our daughter has eczema too. Pity that she have to cut down on her favorite foods. i bought cetaphil baby shower + shampoo. 2 in 1. as for the moisturizer, cetaphil works best for my son since i tried quite a lot of brands. but then it depends on the child i believe. can give it a try and see whether it works for your daughter. i have tried QV, moogoo, aveeno (bought aveeno eczema in perth but cant find it in malaysia. here can find aveeno but not specifically for eczema. quite good as well), ezzera & few moreDoes the Cepathil baby shower and cetaphil moisturizer help? Can the Cepathil baby shower use for hair wash? Lastly, where did u do the allergy test and how much it cost? Thanks! did allergy test in avisena (previously known as demc, in shah alam). cant really remember how much as it was yearsss back. suggest to give them a call to check on price and if you are ok to ask for appointment |

QUOTE(mycolumn @ Aug 15 2019, 10:15 AM) good that u know what's the allergies. at least can reduce the occurence of the eczema. btw, where did you go for the allergy test? went to demc (now known as avisena) in shah alam. egg & dust is very difficult to avoid. pity him as he can only see his friends enjoy birthday cake during birthday celebration but lucky now he understand cake got egg, egg will make him itch so he will also try to avoid eating anything with egg (he is now 3years+). however its very difficult to avoid flare up eventhough we avoid all those allergies factor. seems that i need to read more as well on eczema trigger factor..which might be a lot! |

QUOTE(Dark8870 @ Sep 10 2019, 11:53 AM) Sharing this as a fellow parents whose kids have eczema: currently using cetaphil, the normal one. previously bought aveeno baby eczema works quite good but difficult to find here in malaysia. maybe i should give restoderm a try. thanks As there are many brands/types of eczema lotions/cream out there, some may work wonders for some but not all. My personal opinion would be to try and see which lotion works best for your child. As for my child (he also developed eczema when he was about 6months), my wife and I tried many brands and kept a very-minimal,if almost no, tolerance to any lotion/cream that contains steroids. Eventually we found Cetaphil Restoraderm works best to bring down and prevent flare-ups. The more "potent" one we used was Natralia's Eczema & Psoriasis Cream, but I tend to use it as sparingly as possible as we were concerned that too much might condition my child's skin to develop a need to use an even "stronger" cream in the future. Now my child is 6, and there are still flare-ups due to eczema causing situations i.e dust/unsuitable sun-screen lotions, etc., his skin is much better an all we can do is keep his skin as moisturized as possible. Resorted to the normal(cheaper) Cetaphil moisturizer at the moment. But for me, bottom-line would be to keep skin as moisturized as possible. |

QUOTE(Dark8870 @ Sep 11 2019, 05:29 PM) I know!! Back then, wife and I had to be as thick-skinned as possible to pester anyone who's going to Australia to buy Eczema lotions/creams for us. One product we couldn't find here (during then) was the Natralia Psoriasis Eczema cream. Not to mention Restoraderm is more expensive than in Australia. I think it was MYR130 here, where as we got some friends to buy and bring it back for MYR60/per bottle... I think it was around AUD20 or less over there, provided you get from places like Chemist Warehouse, etc. i love chemist warehouse!! |

QUOTE(laitlee @ Sep 11 2019, 05:41 PM) Don't give formula milk as have laktose. Give soy expensive but good for them. My son was so bad so drink only soy. Isomil Plus is ok tried giving soy milk but becomes worst for him. almost whole face becomes red. read that soy can also trigger eczema. after that go back to giving previous milk. |

QUOTE(air_ed20 @ Sep 12 2019, 09:44 AM) First kudos to a great parenting ... but eczema comes in a lot of sensitivities, I'll separate a few in below summarize; steroid jab? i think the wrap is doing the wet wrap right?1. For head try use sebame so they won't form bad dandruff but consult pharmacy if it's ok for infant this age 2. Use soap which is medicinal 3. Seafood is a no no 4. Tight waist pant, belt metal will cause itchiness - try stay out of it Lastly I got one friend severe case but he's late 20s or early 30s it comes and go, he went hospital for jap and they wrap him like mummy but it was a good kill for the eczhema.. note that this is better treatment in SG as MY treat it differently |

QUOTE(Pikichu @ Sep 12 2019, 11:49 AM) 7 months old baby is fed with manufactured formula?!! my son is now almost 4 years old and i breastfed him until 2 years plus. stop because he rejected breast milk. mention he got ezcema SINCE 6 months old and he never ate seafood his entire life...aside from salmonThen suffer eczema, parents continue to feed formula!!! Mother's breast milk is the best food for baby. While reverting to breast milk, surface cleaning and hygiene, remember to keep the skin moisturize. Two weeks should be evidence. I pity seeing comments about seafood for a 6 months baby. Some parents really need to get educated. This post has been edited by intellactual85: Sep 12 2019, 12:00 PM |

QUOTE(Pikichu @ Sep 12 2019, 12:02 PM) Thank you for clarifying. Child is 3+ years of age. actually my son drinks EBM previously. did test and seems that he is not allergic to lactose. dont really listen to public but want some suggestion especially from parents with experience having kids with eczema. there's only 1 comment on milk though.. and i still go to the pediatric dermatologist. but thanks for the inputThere is a human physiological function called "weening" It is natural and common. It means human child goes off milk. Then find out, 'lactose intolerance' another natural physiological change. Once you understand these physiological functions, then ask one question. Why are you forcing your child milk that the body is design to reject. When you shift to Isomil, the body still has to expel the toxin. That's why the eczema did not subside. Also I suggest 2 weeks. Hope it is clear what you need to do. Don't listen to public because there are people profiting from selling milk. Remember one PM once said 1mdb is good but then hoard billions at home. 2 weeks, then see the results. |
