I am sorry we have a baby care line as well that would be very helpful for your son.

My baby had exzema. You can use baby oil and use baby lotion several times a day. Also Aveeno lotion is great and they make it for babies. You can find it in the baby isle in the stores. I would try some of that. Most times they will grow out of it. shihtzumama

I suggest just gently massaging your baby with baby oil several times a day and especially after they are bathed. Also Aveeno has a very nice set of natural products out that use oatmeal and honey.

pls try dermablens soap to soften the skin of ur baby it could make smooth at the same time then afterwards put hyrocortisone for itchiness. promise that could help esp for sensitive skin like your baby.goodluck

I also have this skin disease. You must take care of his skin. You may use mild soap. This is usually hereditary. To be sure, consult your dermatologist. It's hard to suggest since your son is only one month old.

Use pinetarsol in the bath, and sorbolene cream on the ezcema itself. Find out if he has any allergies to anything. If there are, you can cut them out of the diet.

try and keep skin as moist as possible.. apply creams, vaseline, petroleum jelly... avoid use soap much and use a mild one... advice to drink lots of water as tht helps in maintaning hydration...

I know this post is old but I thought I'd see if you had any luck with your son's skin. I know of something that works wonders but you may have already found something. Just thought I would check :)
