No advice but just wanted to tell you you you’re not alone, my lo has it allll over his back, and also arms at the moment along with a mass of dribble rash that I just cannot control.
A lady suggested hemp seed oil to me I’ve got some to try after we finish a week of the cream we’re currently testing! X

Mine suddenly developed eczema over last few months, we used to bath him every night as part of his routine but we stopped and bath him every two days, eczema has cleared up.. we tired those creams and prescription ones too but the limited baths seemed to have helped xx

Agree with not bathing every day. La Roche posay baby lipikar cream has been great for us plus taking vitamin D drops everyday

It might take time for the emollient to be effective and it can take a while to find the right one. The steroid cream should work within a week. Give your little one pirition and you may eventually find what can cause it. We recently found out fresh tomatoes cause my little ones to flare up
