What Are the Symptoms of Baby Eczema?
Usually they first sign of eczema is itchiness. Sometimes the itching will start well before the rash appears. When it does appear, the rash can appear almost anywhere on they body but are commonly found on the face, knees, hands, or feet. Affected areas usually appear very dry, thickened, or scaly. In fair-skinned babies, these areas may initially appear reddish and then turn brown. Among darker-skinned babies, eczema can affect pigmentation, making the affected area lighter or darker. In other cases of baby eczema, the itchy rash can produce an oozing, crusting condition that can occurs on the face and scalp, but can also appear anywhere on the infants body.
