A. Eczema in babies can take a few weeks to months to improve, depending on its severity and triggers. Since your doctor has prescribed a lotion, consistent application is key to healing. Here’s what you can expect: ⏳ Healing Timeline: Mild Eczema: 1-2 weeks with proper care Moderate Eczema: 3-4 weeks, but it may flare up occasionally Severe Eczema: Can take longer, and regular management is needed ✅ Tips to Speed Up Healing & Prevent Flare-Ups: ✔ Apply the prescribed lotion regularly – Follow your doctor’s advice on frequency ✔ Keep the skin moisturized – Use fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizers 3-4 times a day ✔ Avoid triggers – Common triggers include harsh soaps, sweating, allergens, and dry air ✔ Use lukewarm water for baths – Avoid hot water, which can dry out the skin ✔ Dress in soft, cotton clothes – Avoid wool or synthetic fabrics ✔ Trim nails – To prevent scratching, which can worsen eczema If the eczema does not improve in 2-3 weeks, spreads, or gets infected (redness, pus, excessive itching), consult the doctor again.
