Thanks all, yep moo goo MSM. Have some 1% too so might try a teeny bit as well as using the mg shampoo on her too. Didn't think of the weather , Melbourne has been all over the place!

have you tried washing in oats? you can wrap them in a facewasher or in the toe of an old stocking. It has helped my two when theirs has flared up

I have done that too babe, haven't for a while though in the bath so will do it again. This is mainly on her face at the mo though - it's really weird. Not red at all but all dry and bumpy? The other day it was a bit red and rashy from her cheeks up to the side of her eyes ITMS. Makes me worry it is something else but I am not sure what it would be - her whole face now seems to be covered in this weird bumpy rash that isn't red! Put some Dermaveen on it tonight and will see how it is on Monday morning and if it hasn't gone will take her to see my GP.

When my DSno.4 was about 6 months, he had a rash around the nappy area that was angry red and raised. I tried every imaginable cream, calendula ointments, zinc cream, antifungal, anti bacterial, cortisol.... everything!

I finally had to take him to a dermatoilgist after Drs keep telling me it was nappy rash. No way was it!
Anyway, hubby & FIL has psorisis, in different areas, and it can be heraditary, so specialist assumed it was that. He wrote a script for a cream that would never make it go away, but would "treat it"....
Then he went on to tell me to ignore the warning label on how the cream has nuerotoxin additives

So, I never got that scrpit filled or ever went back to that Dr!

I went instead to a nathropath that just recommended fish oil. She recommended hypol omega 3 liquid. It smells exreeeeemly fishy!!! about 10ml, x3 a day for 2 weeks, then just every day to get levels up.

The rash disapeared and has never come back. My 2 DD also had mild skin problems, one all over her back, the other on her face, so I treated them too. They all really liked the fish oil dispite the smell, and they all will chomp on fish capsuals now like lollies!

Makes sense to treat from the inside out for great skin.

ps.... sorry for all the crappy spelling, brian is like mush today!
