Mental Anguish!
There was time when I was so much into genetic studies ,scientific researches and current news.It has always been very amazing to me as how genetics plays such a big role in peoples life and social well being.You are most of it what your parents and ancestors are , not only with respect to anatomical makeup but also from the physical appearance point of view.
Ironically few medical problems existed in my family too ,however not in any of my immediate family member . Fortunately so far I dont seem to have inherited any of them and am very thankful to God for that.My maternal grandfather had high blood pressure and my aunt has eczema.As I grew up I was very sure that at some point I will get eczema but thankfully it never bothered me so far.When my daughter was born she was as pure,smooth and creamy as butter.There was not a hint of flaw in her skin.After about one month she got few rashes and I thought it is just minor baby rash.I started keeping her cleaner than ever and that happened to aggravate her problem even more.Later it started getting worse and giving her too much trouble.Doctors say that she has baby eczema.My husband has very mild form of eczema. Apparently my daughter got double dose of eczema one from my family side and one from her father.
So far I have managed to control it by restricting diet and full bodied cloth.She is still breastfeeding so I dont know if she is allergic to some thing I eat because her menu has very few items and that too consists of no item which can be considered allergic.Now my menu has so wide selection of foods that I dont know to which food she is allergic to.
If you go to the doctors for skin problem they prescribe steroid based cream which will definitely cure the skin problem temporarily and cause several side effects.Therefore not a smart idea to follow.
This problem is causing me a lot of mental pain.This thought has occupied my brain so severely that when ever I sit on the net for any work ,after 10-20 minutes I find myself reading stories ,cures and causes of eczema.It is taking too much of my time giving no result so far.This is the most frustrating physical problem I have ever encountered in my life.Even though right now my daughter's problem is very minor and I am able to control it .But when I think about her future I get worried as she will have to through hardships.Doctors say that most of the time approaching age 2 ,babies outgrow this problem.Now that is my only hope .
I wish one day I will see her as clean and buttery as when she was born.
