How Can Allergic Itching In An Infant Be Treated?

My two and a half year old daughter has a high eosinophil count, even on antihistimines. She is up all night long every night, itching herself like crazy. She s had complete bloodwork ups done and has no eczema that anyone knows of...no doctor can seem to get to the bottom of her constant itching. During the day I m able to distract her but at night she is miserable. Help!

Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Your history suggests the presence of eczema. Eczema is characterized by severe itching, however, treatment with anti-allergic and soothing agents like Lacto calamine help to resolve the problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
