Guest guest Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Was the baby breast or bottle fed? If bottle fed, she can make her own goat's milk formula- I would not do soy formula. Did the skin come off with the sock? I once read of a child allergic to a compund called salicalites (sp?) found in apples and other fruits- and the skin would come right off leaving oozing patches. Calendula ointment may help ease it but not get to the root cause. If she is breastfeeding I would say to come off any solids and just breastfeed for awhile and then introduce solids slowly one at a time observing carefully.

I asked why he had them on they said because he scratches his face real bad. being a mother of four children I thought well it can't be that bad as I sat there and slowly pulled down the socks which were sticking to his skin as the sock came off. his arms and legs were covered with exczema.severely. My question is. Is there any herbal practice that can help with that first? it seems like the young mother was just covering it up and not letting it heal with the air. anybody have any suggestions? they took him to doctors but the doctors seem to just keep saying the same thing over and over. just apply this cream. thank you sincerely ME Internal Virus Database is out-of-date.
