My 5-year-old sun got itchy rashes on his tummy, does he have eczema?

Dr Lee Ka Hing
Eczema in children usually appears on the face, and sometimes extends to the inner face of the neck, hands and feet. Common symptoms include itchy and dry skin, as well as red scaly skin. You should bring your son to see the doctor immediately.
