6 Month Old with Weeping Eczema
My 6 month old son is suffering from weeping eczema on his outer lower legs and on his outer upper arms. It is starting to spread to the folds on the backs of his knees and his ankle joints have become very dry and are cracking. The areas on his legs are always raw and oozing a clear thin liquid, almost water like.I have tried several lotions and creams recommended by his doctor. Initially, his arms were the worst, but now it is his legs and nothing seems to be helping. I initially tried Graphites 30c, after a couple doses it seemed to be getting better, his cradle cap improved, but now the eczema is just the same as it was before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was giving him 3 doses per day for about a week. Initially, there was some improvement on his legs but it quickly went back to the way it was so I stopped giving it to him. His cradle cap reduced by about half. Otherwise, his poor sleeping habits that he has developed recently have not improved at all. He used to sleep through the night, for the last few weeks he's been up 5 to 6 times a night. He scratches at his arms and legs but I can't tell if he's scratching because it actually itches or if he's doing it because he is in a cranky mood.

it is a case of overdosing. stop medicine and wait for a few days..graphites 30 can be used safely only once a week . meanwhile give him some citrus fruit juice . it is natural antidote of homeopathic medicine.
