My daughter had it when she was younger, what worked for her was eliminating dairy from her diet for a few months. It sounds like you have tried all the topical treatments, perhaps she reacting to a food allergy.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423569847181146904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31928341.post-37605193905862245502007-07-15T14:56:00.000-07:002007-07-15T14:56:00.000-07:00oh...I am so sorry to hear of your struggle with t...oh...I am so sorry to hear of your struggle with this.
