Atopic Dermatitis Dry Skin Response to Seaside/ Costal climate

Dear Doctors/Members,
I've a 3 yr old kid who is suffering from severe Eczema/ Atopic Dermatitis & dry skin.
We have consulted a few dermatologists and currently we're going through steroids treatment.
Over the Internet I've found a few articles which say By Moving to Seaside/ Costal areas , playing on the beach and taking Sea water bath helps in curing Eczema skin.
Is that true? By moving to Seaside will have any benefit on my Kid's eczema skin & treatment? Please guide me.
Note: We currently live in Bangalore City, India which is a tropical climate.

  1. Hello dear , I know how difficult caring for our children with skin issues can be. I believe one of the very hardest parts of parenthood is when we see our child struggle and we are not able to make all the hurt go away. Many have offered their best tips in helping those skin flares on our children's skin. Here is some information: https://atopicdermatitis.net/living/climate-allergens https://atopicdermatitis.net/community/community-advocates/harrison-li and https://atopicdermatitis.net/living/swimming-water. Please let us know your thoughts... Sending healing hugs to both you and your son, Liz - AtopicDermatitis.net - Site Moderator
