from saliva or milk, overheating or sweating, wool or other
scratchy fabrics, common house dust, cat or dog dander, smoke,
harsh detergents or soaps and water. Now if your infant shows
signs of eczema, the sooner you eliminate any of the above, the

breaking the cycle. Eczema cream with cortisone includes Cortaid
and Hydrocortisone. These are relatively mild and should do the
