Childhood Eczema 儿童湿疹
I had priviledged to meet this lovely boy last week. He was brought to see me with severe Eczema that caused much discomfort and inability to sleep at night because of the ithcyness . With treatment, his condition improved within days ( as shown in the photos). I am thankfull that he is well and happy now.
Childhood eczema is a common skin problem that usually starts in babies or young children. It makes the skin dry, red, itchy, and sometimes cracked. It often shows up on the cheeks, arms, or legs. Eczema can get worse with things like dust, heat, certain soaps, or foods. It can run in families, especially if parents have eczema, asthma, or allergies.
To help, keep the skin moist with creams, avoid things that make it worse, and use special creams from the doctor if needed. Many children get better as they grow older, but some may still have flare-ups later.

儿童湿疹是一种常见的皮肤问题,通常在婴儿或幼儿时期开始。它会让皮肤变得干燥、发红、发痒,有时还会裂开。湿疹常出现在脸颊、手臂或腿上。灰尘、热、某些肥皂或食物等因素可能会让湿疹更严重。如果家里有人有湿疹、哮喘或过敏,孩子患湿疹的几率也会更高。护理方面要经常给皮肤涂保湿霜,避免让症状加重的因素,并在医生指导下使用药膏。很多孩子随着长大湿疹会好转,但有些人长大后还会偶尔复发。
