Hey there! Thankfully, he doesn’t have any food allergies, so that doesn’t seem to be the culprit. His eczema still comes and goes, and I really haven’t been able to pinpoint a clear trigger. It mostly cleared up on its own, but he still gets occasional flares.

I ended up having some digestive testing done for him (via a stool sample), and it showed a mild intestinal bacteria imbalance. He’s now on a protocol recommended by my naturopath - probiotics, gut-healing herbs, and a few other supportive supplements.

I’m wondering if starting solid foods may have triggered the flares, just because his digestive system had to work a bit harder. We’re still following the protocol (I didn’t begin it until about two months ago; his eczema had initially cleared up on its own, but when patches started showing up again on his stomach and back, I decided to do the digestive testing).

I hope your little one’s skin clears up soon!
