Guest guest Posted March 2, 2001 Report Share Posted March 2, 2001 Hi All, I have a 3 1/2 year old son who is autistic and a 7 mos. old daughter who appears to be developing normally. Recently, however, I have noticed dry patches of skin, slightly discolored (yellowish/pinkish) on her knees, her arms, just below the elbows, her hands, and her back (around where the kidneys are). Should I be concerned? I realize this could be infantile eczema but with my sons autism I'm nervous. Also, I have a friend whose 4 year old (not autistic) son has eczema and seems to be self limiting himself to cheese. Does anyone know if there is a connection here? How do you treat the eczema? Thanks Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
