Have you asked her > pediatrician or done any online searches on dietary > causes or prevention of eczema? Yes, we have, and apart from being told to buy some hydrocortisone cream, the doctor blamed her becoming vegetarian and told her to start eating meat again or at least take fish oil! We have extensively researched online, too, and been to health food stores for vitamins/minerals and such, but it may just be something she'll have to live with. Eczema seems to be one of those things that are really hard to pin down and cure. We are planning on an allergy test and are trying a different doctor. > Good luck with that. > My daughter suffers from it, and has since she was > quite little [she is 15 now].
