ive never asked my mum that question but my brother has eczema and my sis doesnt and we had baths together

If you are diagnosed with eczema, 9 to 10 the doctor will just say to use lotion and maybe take Vitamin D which are both good to do. However, if you have eczema then you may want to read the below articles and take PRObiotics. A product like GNC: Digestive Health Powder (1/4 scoop daily) the pro & prebiotics along with digestive enyzmes help break down and absorb your food better so you get more nutrients going to all your organs... your skin being the largest and needing more nutrients stays healthier. It cleared up 80% of my son's eczema within a week!!!
I also believe that IF your body's eczema is not caused by an allergy THEN body pH may be the ultimate culprit because Probiotics have to be given every day. If you stop then the eczema comes back which means the GOOD bacteria (ie probiotics) used to absorb food are NOT surviving when they should. This was proved to me when even using probiotics I gave my son OJ for a few days in a row. The eczema around his neck was sooo RED. I figured the pH must be too acidic/LOW for the bacteria to survive. I gave him some baking soda in his milk before he when to bed to raise his pH levels and make his system more base/alkaline. By the morning the redness had when down from 9 to about 3 on a 1-10 scale.
Note I did not get this info from a doctor I just had to do all the research on my own.

HOPE this helps
PS pH makes sense because when you get a urinary track infection (UTI) you take cranberry juice which is low in pH or acidic to KILL the bacteria and get rid of the infection.
FYI Normal pH of blood 7.34, saliva 7.4
pH scale 0-6.5 =acidic 6.5-7.5 more neutral
7.5 & above base or alkaline
Veggies, whole wheat are base/alkaline
OJ, cranberry juice, are acidic
SO try to eat more alkaline food, less acidic food and take probiotics IF your sure an allergy is not causing your condition

For us, this is not the case, and I hope it helps. From the time of birth, we have never bathed our five year old son daily and his eczema has only gotten worse. We used to bathe him about twice a week and now once a week because he screams the whole time and it breaks our hearts. So no link with overbathing here.

im sure that if this is true in ur experience then it is purely sercurmstansial .although i have heard that over bathing can make the skin dry due too the fact that it replaces the need 2 natural oil....but i do not bekllieve that this is the cause for all eczema perhaps a few cases may be linkind 2 this though
