My son has eczema. When will he grow out of it?!


Question: My son has eczema!. When will he grow out of it!?
My son had eczema as a baby and I thought it was just a baby thing but has continued to now (he's 15!.) Does anyone have any idea as to when he will grow out of it, or if it will stay with him forever!? (Also note that his eczema isn't that bad possibly just because it isnt a bad form of eczema or maybe because he keeps control of it by not scratching and putting cream on spots that ever flare up a little!. It's mainly just the fact that he has in general dry skin)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tell him to get small doses of the sun (or yes I hate to give this advice) but a tanning salon a few times per week!.
