All cases of eczema should be treated with non-prescription bland emollients. Bland emollient means moisturizing creams or ointments that do not have scent and color that protect and restore the skin barrier. All eczema should be seen by a healthcare professional to see if any OTC steroid (hydrocortisone) or prescription ointments should be prescribed that would be used IN ADDITION to the Happy Cappy Moisturizing Cream.
