Eczema
Hello! My 18-week old daughter was diagnosed with baby eczema last month. Her dad has eczema too. We have been on and off the steroid cream since :( Any tips on how to manage it and what has worked best for your little ones? I am off dairy, eggs and soy, also gluten-intolerant so no wheat and oats either

Vulva skin lesions
I have been having what a general practitioner called "vulvar dermatitis" since 2016. I'm not convinced of the treatment or the diagnosis. Let me explain. I have a history of autoimmune disease (Hashimoto, Rheumatoid Arthritis). I didn't find out until recently that Bechet's disease also runs in my

14 year old son with tight foreskin, will he need surgery
My son recently told his dad that his foreskin doesn't retract. I think he was to embarrassed to talk to me. Took him to the doctors and was told to apply steroid cream and was told try gentle stretching. Went back a month later, and although the foreskin is less tight and now retracting it's not fully

Sore perineum and vulvar
I have a pudendal nerve entrapment diagnosis of 8 years now but recently the pain from the anal area has now moved to my vaginal area causing really bad pain in vagina, vulva and perineum. I was given hormone cream to insert by gp as she thought it was menopausal symptoms. This didn't work. I revisited

To be honest I wonder if

Are Toe sores part of Bechets?
Hi there, Does anyone else get little sores between toes and belive them to be part of Bechets? I saw a new Dr Rheumatologist today who thinks it more likely a fungal thing. She admitted to not having many or any other Bechets patients on her book. The sores sometimes look like a spot other times

So what has changed?
Never had tinnitus before until my wife was diagnosed with cancer. 6 months on thats all sorted, back to reality. Apart from this infernal ring in my head. Something physiological or psychological must have changed to cause this ringing. The ringing pulses in tune to my heart beat so is it blood pressure

All very strange and scary - adrenals? Allergic reaction?
I posted a while ago about dizzy spells not unlike sea sickness. Last Monday was a very stressful day and Tuesday saw me so dizzy I could not move safely. Bad even lying down. I took 2 extra mg pred and took it very easy. By Wednesday could move about but with poor balance. Friday night I woke after

DIGOXIN
Any thoughts on the drug Digoxin please. Currently my drug regime is not controlling my rates, resting rate should be 60 as set by my pacemaker but for the past 6 days it has been erratic, also finding that the diuretic I take is not dealing efficiently with my fluid overload. Due to see cardiac specialist
