Eczema. A trouble word for Xuan and mummy. Xuan's eczema flare out badly about 2 weeks ago. Mummy could not trace to what could Xuan be allergy to. As a precaution, Mummy kept away all my flurry soft toys away. Oh.. Xuan misses mickey and minnie mouse.
Xuan could not stop scratching. Mummy feels so heartpain to see Xuan scratching so badly. Redness, coarse skin, broken skin. Haiz... Mummy understand that eczema can cause itchness beyond description and it is very tough not to scratch. Intensive moisturising, cold compresses... all are done to relieve the itch. Internet research for remedy were also done. We have also read that 1 in 5 children has this allergy problem. Haiz... Hopefully Xuan will outgrow eczema as I grow up.
Xuan visited Auntie Dr Toh last Monday. We studied the possible causes but could not narrow to any. Xuan was given some syrup to relieve itch and some cream to apply. Auntie Dr Toh is very nice and has been exchanging emails with mummy after our consultation answering our concerns and to check on Xuan's recovery.
Hope eczema will stay far far away from Xuan soon!
Xuan having fun while waiting for our turn to see auntie Dr Toh. Auntie Dr Toh said that Xuan is a good girl. I follow auntie Dr Toh's instruction as she asked me to lie down, sit up, stretch out my arm for her to check.
Xuan is now 15.5kg and stands at 98cm tall at 25 month old!
