Eczema Treatment Care

Question by veija02: My 6 year old son has eczema and has since birth. I recently took him to the doctor for coughing and runny?
nose, and she told me that he had wheezing in his lungs and that because he had eczema, that he would develop asthma and that a small percentage of children that have eczema develop ashtma later in life. I have never heard of this and can find no relation between the two on the net. I don’t want to give my child a medication that he does not need. Does anyone else have any information on this? Please help.

Eczema is a form of allergy and they do and can go together. I have sever allergies but do not have normal astma I have sports ashtma. You want to try that in a google.
There are many sites on what you ask. Webmd, Mayo Clinic has a site. And I would try this google to…latex allergies..Because I am allergic to latex properties and get eczema from being exposed to it. It may have helpful idea on how to lower allergens in your home to help him out. Well i know it does. I even use the information for my car so i do not touch or inhale things.
