Can you prevent eczema from infancy?
Manage episode 503235498 series 2902490
There could be a relatively simple way to prevent eczema in children, and it starts at just a few weeks old.
A new study has compared infants who received daily moisturisation with infants who didn’t.
It seemed to lower the rate of eczema, which is also a risk factor for children developing food allergy and asthma.
