It is bad enough when adults suffer from the pain and itch of eczema, but it is even worse when babies have it.
As an adult, you can resist the temptation to scratch, but babies don't have that kind of self control.
And as a result, eczema in babies can become an even bigger problem.
The problem is; many of the doctor prescribed creams and lotions contain steroids and other nasty chemicals.
And, as a responsible parent, you may not want to use some of these potentially harmful treatments.
Following, I have listed a couple cures that are strong enough to work, but safe enough for your baby.
There are a lot of ways to treat eczema; from expensive pharmaceutical drugs to natural products like vegetables, original herbs, or topical plants.
It's up to you to decide on which cures are right for you.
Place a humidifier in the baby's room.
It will create extra moisture in the air.
This technique helps many eczema sufferers and is a completely natural solution.
The baby's skin cells will absorb the extra moisture and relieve some of the pain and itch.
Some types of material and clothing may irritate eczema in babies.
In most cases, natural cotton clothing is less irritating than other synthetic materials.
Replace some of their synthetic clothing with items made from natural cotton.
This easy solution can offer significant improvement and make them feel a lot more comfortable.
There are natural cures that you can make yourself.
Cucumber juice mixed with ordinary milk and natural bee's honey is helpful for many.
Aloe is also a good remedy.
It's an awesome natural moisturizer and will help heal and relieve the itching sensation.
Aloe Vera is most commonly used for burns, but it can also be used for eczema.
