Bleach baths?

Question

My 2 yr olds dermatologist recommended that I take him diluted bleach baths but I’m soooo scared to do it. Anyone else done this before?

Answer

These people below are completely uneducated obviously. It's a very common treatment for eczema! Works very well and completely safe.

Answer

Before doing that, have you tried:
Oatmeal baths
Epsom salt soaks
Apple cider vinegar baths
Baking soda baths?
Adjusting your toddler's diet? Elimination diet? 
If, still, breastfeeding him adjusting -your- diet? 
You've probably done all or most of this. Just in case, some ideas that might help or trigger an a-ha moment.
An idea for soothing flare ups is to make some spearmint or peppermint tea. Let it cool and dab it on little one's skin, like a toner!

Answer

The bleach bath work as well as apple cider vinegar… but if you’re breastfeeding your baby you might want to look into your diet because what you may be eating can cause the flare ups. … dairy… gluten… soy!!!

Answer

I definitely would not do this. I don't like chemicals around him, much less in his bath. My son also had eczema and I've never heard of this. I used eczema wash and intensive night cream.

Answer

For soothing try bubsi or eczema honey company
