Q My 18-month-old son has eczema on his ankles and has been given cream to be applied as it has recently become very sore and itchy. Is there anything else I can do regarding his diet to help his condition. A friend suggested giving him Soya products instead of dairy as this may help but he does not have a lot of milk as he was breast fed until he was a year and will not drink milk on it's own now. Do you have any suggestions to help it? health visitors response
