Well, I knew that problem that causes eczema (atopic dermatitis) is coming from inside out...
We did the patch testing for skin allergies on my baby's arms when he was 8 months old. It was painless and without blood. We got the results in 15-30 minutes.
My baby is allergic to food that I was eating (because I am breastfeeding him) and that he ate.
This included milk and dairy products, egg white, apple, peach, apricot, tomato, peanut, walnut, hazelnut and almond.
As soon as we found out, we started our diet. Of course we had to use antibiotic cream for 7 days and mixture of panthenol and only steroid cream for 5 days because his skin was really damaged. But we have found what was causing eczema so there were no more itching and scratching. His skin become gentle and soft just like it should be.
So our solution is diet. But it is really important to emphasize that for example even if my son is allergic only to egg white we don't use eggs at all. Also a lot of industrial products if not 90% of them contains traces of nuts, eggs, milk etc. So when you have to avoid any kind of food don't eat this products because you can never be sure is there some or any allergens in it. This is particularly important for persons who have strong allergies or who have experienced anaphylaxis. Persons who are allergic to ingredients such as gluten, yeast, flower etc. have to be even more cautious.
