You can help children who suffer from atopic dermatitis, like Cazz Trisby (pictured at right), whose chronic itching, rashes, and weeping skin lesions require him to frequently wear thick mittens taped on his hands and feet. The mittens - known as "wet wraps" - help discourage him from scratching and hurting himself. They also allow special ointments and medications to do their work uninterrupted, healing his skin and suppressing the itch.
Only through your generous support are we able to provide the specialized clinical care, family education, and research that The Eczema Center's children and their families require.
