Okay so we have had some pretty nice weather here. We have a grassy area in front of the house and depending on the time of day you can let the kids run around and play. I say depending on time of day because he have a pretty full parking lot now and people come and go in the early morning.
So last week the weather was really nice and Prince went out to play. So I gathered both kids and the dog and went outside. Well with in about 30 minutes Prince had little dots on his legs. I scooped the kids up and took the dog inside. I went and got some benadryl.
Prince has been to an allergist. They told me as of the tests they ran he is not allergic to what they tested for. They did advise me that he had sensitive skin.
So by the time I get to the store he has a couple dots on his face as well. I get the benadryl and give it a chance. Things clear up within a couple hours.
I am aware at the first of every month a person comes here to spray for pests, I am aware that the grass that is here is a bit harder (not as soft as some grass) than most, my dog doesn't even really like it. I call the pediatrician and ask for a referral to the allergist again and see if they can put it through quick.
Well they did their part but the allergist doesn't have an appointment for a month an a half. That won't work. Well now he has new eczema spots. He has always had 3. Now he has them behind his knees. It has not been hot and we have not changed anything. Maybe it is coincidence that it happened around the same time.
They are putting in an RX for his cream because these are a little bit different than the other 3 spots that he has. I hope the RX works.
It is all very frustrating....
My nephew has eczema too. He has had it since he was a baby. he is now 12.
ReplyDeleteI made some brown sugar body scrub for my sister, but she ended up trying it on my nephew and she said that his eczema has cleared up greatly. It is worth a try.
I use all organic ingredients...
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup honey
Just mix it all together.
Also, my sister has found that the Seventh Generation brand of laundry soap has also helped. Hope you see some improvement for him soon.
Take care!
Oh no!! I wonder if it is the pesticide? I hope he's not itching, poor little guy!
ReplyDeleteOur grass isn't any better here - our dog doesn't want to be on it either. I long for the pretty soft green yards I see. Sigh!
Do you people have a facebook fan page? I looked for one on twitter but could not discover one, I would really like to become a fan!
