Tubby Todd All Over Ointment for Eczema. Works wonders! I use it on my LO after every bath & you only need a dime sized amount
Tbh nothing worked for it besides steroid cream for us! I use aquaphor 2-3 times a day for his skin with the steroid, he has that type of eczema all over his body
My son had something that look exactly like that and we needed prescription cream unfortunately. Talk to your doctor
Do you know what environmental factor triggers his eczema?
The most important thing for eczema is hydration. If using a cream (like vanicream) and layering Vaseline (scent free) or aquaphor, doesn't work then you move up to a steroid (hydrocortisone) which you can only use a 3 days at a time because you'll need to give your babies skin a break. When using a steroid make sure to layer. Sunscreen is vital!
Aquaphor and hydrocortisone (prescription because it’s 2.5%) work for us to manage our sons. We still don’t have a hard and fast “fix” unfortunately.
