Long story short… my baby has eczema but our paediatrician is not giving me a referral to a dermatologist. This started when she was 1 month old, she is now almost 6 months old. I have tried several creams ointments and hydrocortisone creams without any significant improvement. Not only she is not giving us a referral but she is also not providing enough information on how to apply the creams etc. she suggested bathing her everyday day but that made things worse… she’s scratching her skin at every chance. I need to have her on pants and long sleeves at all times. At her sleep she’s scratching the sides of her head… Even my family doctor said you have to learn to live with it and I might not be able to control the flare ups for years at a time! I’ll leave more pictures at the comments… your thoughts?
I’m I wrong that I want to see a dermatologist and find the reason of the flare ups? I’m I overthinking and overreacting?
