Some children's organisms are highly susceptible to dust, animal dander, mold, plant pollen and sunlight. How can you recognize this allergic disease in a child? Symptoms of eczema in children are as follows. First, small red spots appear on the cheeks, and after a while, perhaps, on the face, knees, neck, wrists, elbows, eyelids, outer surface of the feet and hands.
