You can get special shampoos specially designed for eczema. Ask him to prescribe you a strong one… to me though it sounds like cradle cap or a condition similar to that. It may be a good idea to be referred to a dermatologist just in case.
Hope this helps!

Some shampoo’s don’t have to be but the shampoos that work and aren’t prescribed are usually extremely expensive so I’d prefer to get it on prescription :P

topical steroids are always the best.

Yes topical steroids are the best option but their prolong use may be harmful in the end. Why do not you try aloe Vera gel, some oil or something other natural to relieve itching. You may try some natural remedies that may work without any adverse effect. You may check out a href=”http://www.skincare09.com/articals.php?topid=130″>remdies for eczema /a> to pick a better option.
