"I tend to get eczema in the winter, but it feels like the itching area is coming from the mole. What should I do?"

If you tend to have eczema in the winter and think the itching may be coming from a mole, it's important to first focus on hydrating your skin. You can use a fragrance-free moisturizer like Aveeno, Cutibase, Base Glaxal, Cerave, or others. Apply the cream whenever you feel the need to scratch, and avoid using scented soaps. After bathing, gently pat your skin dry and apply moisturizer within five minutes. In winter, make sure to protect your skin by wearing gloves and covering your neck and face. If the air is too dry indoors, consider using a humidifier in your child's room. If these non-pharmacological measures are not enough, it's best to consult a doctor for a thorough assessment of your needs.
