RE: Went to the doc today I have an answer to you

[Guest guest]

MY SON HAD THE EXACT SAME THING. Most likely, it is a reaction to cow milk.

It is not dermatitis. I think the placement of the rash has something to do

with the reaction the lymph nodes create. I put my kid on organic cow milk

and it went away. But 3 years later he is not sensitive to organic cow milk

as well. I now use almond milk (that I buy) and he has no problem.

Stupid Doctors.

P.S. Does it " light up " in the bath?

Herbal Remedies - Went to the doc today- Venting!

 

 

I have to share my frustration and seek other advice.....I took my

son to the doctor today, just one more time thinking I might get a

real answer, to no avail! 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...
