Kids With Eczema

Managing your child's eczema is a difficult and important job. Parents have many questions and worries when a child is diagnosed with eczema. Support is key to managing this challenging condition. Learning what works for other families and having someone to talk to is what the online eczema community is for.

On MyEczemaTeam, the social network and online support group for those living with eczema, members talk about a range of personal experiences and struggles. Kids with eczema are one of the top 10 topics most discussed.

Here are some conversations about children with eczema:

• My 2-year-old daughter had a rough day, she wasn’t bleeding but her skin was really rough all over.

• My daughter had a good skin day today (finally). I wish every day was this easy for her. Now if only her school nurse would understand that my little girl has skin issues and isn’t contagious.

• My son had his dermatology checkup. They changed his meds so hopefully, that will start helping him find relief.

Here are some question and answer threads about kids with eczema:

• Has anyone tried UVB therapy for their child or themselves?

• What's the best product to use for a 3-year-old for eczema?

Can you relate?
