Allergy Remedies

Eczema often presents itself in infants between the ages of two and six months.  Since your child cannot yet speak, it may be hard to tell whether or not he or she is experiencing skin allergies or eczema.  However, signs of eczema are usually easy to spot on an infant; their skin will appear red and they will have a hard time avoiding the spot.  Luckily, there are many topical treatments that will quickly soothe your baby’s skin and get rid of the pain and discomfort of infant eczema.  If you are concerned that your child’s condition may have worsened, don’t hesitate to make an appointment with an allergy doctor as soon as possible.

Skin Allergy Test

What you believe to be eczema could simple be a less irritating skin allergy.  Skin allergies often come about during the time of year when the flowers are in bloom and it’s getting warmer and warmer.  To differentiate between minor skin allergies and eczema, schedule a skin allergy test for your children right away.  Comprehensive allergy testing will reveal all of your child’s allergens!  Your allergy doctor can provide you with helpful information about how to avoid your child’s allergens as well as helpful allergy remedies such as topical cream and nasal spray.
