I have an eight year old patient (boy) who has horrible itching from his eczema. He started getting eczema at 3 years old behind knees and it spread to elbows and then all over. He has seen an allergist and after allergy work up twice his allergies are all tree pollens and all grass pollens. No foods not dust mites. He has been under the care of a dermatologist, allergist. He has been on steroids oral twice for eye edema and the skin cleared up momentarily. They put him on oral antibiotics 6-8 times in the last two years for his skin. I put him on probiotics daily 5 months ago and sent him to an acupuncturist then too. He has been the best he's ever been but still has the red parts you see in the photos and diffuse dry itchy skin. He can't sleep well fir itching and he is very angry about having to do creams when parents put stuff on him. He says he hates his life and yells that his parents are mean... They did Eframs egg treatment several times for about 2 months while starting acupuncture and the acupuncturist started him on the meds in the photo, quercitin nettles, fish oil and Wu Wei. The photos show where his skin is now.
Birth he. Case toon due to not progressing in labor at 5cm. Was formula fed on standard cows milk based till 12 months then changed to organic whole milk. No issues till 3 years old, that's when mom was pregnant with his sister. His eczema has gotten worse every year. He is all about contacting mom and competing for her attention with his sister.

I want to help his itch and his anger. Please give me suggestions. Thank you so much.
