It's still eczema. Eczema is both plural and singular.
Eczema can be a nuisance for many adults but when children are diagnosed with the condition, the results can be debilitating. The term eczema can refer to a number of skin conditions that cause the epidermis to appear irritated and red. On occasion, eczema can cause tiny bumps filled with fluid that can multiply and ooze. The most common form of eczema is known as atopic dermatitis. Infantile eczema is a condition that appears in infants and older children. More than half of children diagnosed with eczema develop asthma or hay fever. While eczema is not an allergy in itself, the condition can trigger allergies. Since about 1 in every 10 children develops eczema, it's essential to understand the condition.In many cases, eczema will go into remission and most symptoms will begin to fade for months or even years. Many children find that their eczema improves by the time they reach 5 or 6 years of age. Other children may continue to experience flare-ups from childhood to adulthood. Eczema is not contagious and is thought to be inherited by some scientists. Parents can help their child prevent or treat their eczema by avoiding known triggers that can result in flare-ups. Follow these suggestions:Avoid IrritantsChildren with eczema should avoid taking frequent baths or showers which tend to dry out the skin. Use mild soaps and warm water while bathing your child. It's best to avoid scented soaps and instead, select non-soap cleansers. To control itching, ask your child's physician if it's okay to use oatmeal soaking products. Do not scrub or rub your child after a bath but instead, gently pat the child dry with a towel. Avoid dressing the child in clothing that could be irritating to the skin, such as wool or tightly-woven materials. Stick with breathable fabrics, such as loose cotton t-shirts and pants.Treat EczemaEczema can be treated at home with the use of various products. Apply a moisturizing ointment, cream, or lotion to the child's skin on a regular basis and directly after bathing. Parents should avoid using any products that contain alcohol or other ingredients that can be drying to the skin. Apply cool compresses to the irritated areas to ease itching and relieve discomfort from irritated areas. Have your child drink plenty of water which can hydrate the skin. Eliminate any allergens from your child's diet, as well as household allergens like pet dander and dust.
