Understanding the Basics
Questions #10 to #7
Why does eczema keep coming back, and can it be cured? What really causes it, and why does it affect some children but not others? In this opening section, our experts will tackle the most common foundational questions about eczema - including diagnosis, triggers, and how eczema impacts your child’s lifestyle, from sports to play.
03.20 PM - 03.40 PM
Everyday Care & Common Concerns
Questions #6 to #4
Parents often wonder about hygiene, contagion, and treatment safety. Should your child shower frequently? Can eczema spread to others? And what about moisturisers and steroids - are they safe? This section focuses on practical daily care, helping you separate myths from medical facts.
03.40 PM - 04.00 PM
Food, Remedies & Managing the Itch
Questions #3 to #1
From diet choices to natural remedies, parents are eager to know what truly works for eczema. Here, experts will answer pressing questions on food restrictions, the role of alternative treatments, and most importantly, how to stop the cycle of scratching and improve your child’s quality of life.
04.00 PM - 04.15 PM
Stories of Resilience – Living with Eczema
Persevere with Daily Triumphs
Beyond the medical facts, eczema is a lived experience for many families. In this segment, people with eczema and caregivers share their personal journeys - the challenges, the coping strategies, and the hope. Their stories bring out the human side of eczema and highlight that no one faces it alone.
