my son is 16month old and he has atopic dermatitis and we have seen a doctor n he gave us some ointment to apply n some medicine to eat and we have been following it for a month. for 1st one week there was lots of improvement but now the wound has subsided but it is not healing totally. so what should we do?
Hello dear! Provided that he is having atomic dermatitis, the wound takes time to heal.Also, it can flare up with the things he is allergic to like dust, synthetic fiber of clothes or any specific medicine he has been exposed to. I would recommend going for his allergy testing to know what exactly he is allergic to. Secondly in addition to taking medicines, you can also use some home remedies like application of olive oil to the wound.Also, you can use lover heated in coconut oil for few minutes and take that oil and apply when it's on a tolerable temperature. Avoid silk, nylon/synthetic fiber containing clothes especially flees. Use pure cotton clothes. Hope it will help. Be blessed :-)
