Grandson's Eczema Is Driving Grandma Crazy!

Hello,

I have a 2 year old grandson with eczema, really bad at times. He is going for allergy testing next month because of a severe allergic reaction to cashew. I need all the help and suggestions you can give us. He can't sleep most nights for itching, sometimes all over. Hands, ankles, toes, upper thighs and armpits are the worst. Scalp is really dry/flaky/itchy all due to cashew allergies, can we use tea tree oil??????

He sees a dermatolgist also and he is on a couple of new creams. He takes prednisone occasionally as well as benadryl every night and zyrtec every morning. HELP, IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY.

Hello Nancy,

It certainly does sound like your grandson is quite allergic to cashews and it is a very good idea to see what other things he might be allergic to so that these can be avoided. For our website viewers, let me clarify that Benadryl and Zyrtec are drugs that act as antihistamines to reduce the natural chemical histamine in the body while Prednisone is a synthetic corticosteroid drug that acts as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. These are very potent drugs that can cause harmful side effects. My first advice is to start on natural remedies immediately while weaning your grandson off of these drugs and steroid creams.

Here is what I highly recommend you begin immediately in order to naturally care for your grandson's symptoms:


First, bath him with our FACE & BODY MOISTURIZING WASH which is a specially formulated mild cleanser that contains only herbal ingredients that are organically grown and hypo-allergenic and safe enough for very young skin. This will begin to add moisture to his skin and soothe the skin layers. After bathing, gently pat his skin dry with a soft towel.

Then moisturize with our HAND & BODY THERACREAM as this is extremely important for his eczema treatment. This specially formulated cream will stop any itching while it is repairing and bringing balance back to his skin - restoring the normal function of the skin instead of just placating the symptoms. Remember that the most effective, specially formulated products are plant based, have a very rich emollient level and are loaded with nutrients.

Since our HAND & BODY THERACREAM is so very thick and rich, you can choose to add a little sterile water to the cream before applying. You really will be amazed at how quickly these products work and the soothing effect it has immediately on the skin.

For his scalp, I have seen time and time again that using an effective shampoo is critically important. I recommend our HERBAL SHAMPOO TREATMENT which contains three highly effective ingredients: tea tree oil, shea butter and urea . These three ingredients provide a powerful formula to relieving dry scalp symptoms. Tea tree oil has a very helpful restorative effect on skin infections and scalp disorders of every kind, shea butter has a soothing, moisturizing and protecting effect and urea has superior anti-fungal and anti-microbial properties that helps promote fast healing of dry, cracked, itchy, flaky scalp as well as adding much needed moisture.

Please feel free to contact me with any other questions you may have and let me know how your little grandson is progressing.

Warm Regards,
Nanette
