epsom salt baths vs. kirkman's new cream
I have a question for those who have been using kirkman's new cream in place of the epsom salt baths. I have been leary to use it thus far since I have read many reports of those who have used it on there child and then their child develops red bumps. I'd appreciate anyones ideas. Thanks, Grace
Grace, I used an epsom bath once with my daughter at the beginning of the diet. She was practically screaming as her eczema broke out from it. I guess you shouldn't use on kids with eczema? Although, her eczema is clear now. Maybe I will try it again. Janelle
Janelle, My dermatologist for LJ said to never use the epsom salt baths cause of his eczema.

Isn't that funny Denise. Our dermatologist said to use them at least 3 times per week but to make sure they were straight epsom salts and not scented bath salts. I guess that's why doctors are still "practising" - smile. BL ****************************** * v'col netivotcha shalom * ******************************
