Eczema in children is a growing issue in Singapore. Parents are becoming increasingly concerned about dealing with the condition, seeking the right treatment for their kids and various other factors to do with recovery of this serious skin condition. While it is understandable why parents would worry, eczema can be kept under control and is treatable.
