Guest guest Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Oh, this sounds exactly like something that happened to us a few years back. What kind of laundry soap are you using? That was what our problem was. Went to Florida to stay with some family and used their laundry soap (don't even ask what kind it was) and we were suffering so much afterwards.

My 2 1/2 year old has had a rash for about 2 months behind his knees, inside his elbows and all over his back. It's not consistent but rather blotchy raised bumps that get enflamed and itchy. Doc says it's atopical dermatis and gave me a prescription for a topical steroid. That may be all well and good but what I wanted to know was HOW DID HE GET IT? Is it food related, (I think he may have allergies, particulary milk.) is it an environmental irritant, should I be using a milder soap on him, did he know of any more "natural" products such as oatmeal baths or aloe vera gels? Nothing! He was completely clueless! I live in rural Iowa and I don't have any educated sources available to me in natural medicine and I feel so frustrated! :)Can anyone refer me to a source of information or online alternative medicine doc that will answer questions for me?Feeling completely hopeless...Elisa Switch to Netscape Internet Service.As low as $9.95 a month -- Sign up today at http://isp.netscape.com/emregNetscape.
