“…There were two infants with FPIES, both caused by egg yolk. In Japan, egg FPIES was the most common, and FPIES caused by egg yolk has been increasing rapidly in recent years [ 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. It has been suggested that this is the result of the early consumption of eggs spreading in Japan.…”

Background: There is a lack of data regarding the early introduction of the consumption of allergenic food among Asian infants. Methods: We examined infants who had early-onset eczema before 6 months of age and received instructions from certified allergists for the early introduction of hen’s eggs, milk, wheat, peanuts, and tree nuts. Results: The consumption rates of hen’s eggs were 100% at 24 months. For peanuts and walnuts, the consumption rate was moderate at 12 months (48.5% and 30.3%, respectively), but by 24 months, it had progressed to 78.8% and 81.3%, respectively. In contrast, cashews remained at lower levels than other allergens at 20.7% at 12 months and 41.4% at 24 months. No adverse events related to early introductions occurred. Conclusions: In infants with eczema, allergenic foods could be introduced early and well tolerated in Asian infants. However, having eczema may indicate a predisposition to food allergies, so caution is necessary when introducing allergenic foods. The early introduction of peanuts and tree nuts was still more challenging in real-world practice in Asia as well as in Western countries.

Early intervention and active management of infant atopic eczema may play a crucial role in limiting eczema severity and preventing the onset of immediate‐type food allergy. Eczema management involves education, skincare and medications targeting skin inflammation and barrier repair. Topical corticosteroids are the mainstay of anti‐inflammatory therapy, with nonsteroidal options available for some infants. Proactive therapy, addressing subclinical inflammation, is useful for preventing eczema flares, especially in infants with recurrent eczema flares despite reactive therapy. In clinical practice, holistic consideration of overall infant and family health is essential. Providing advice on maternal stress management, nutritional guidance and recommendations for proper sleep and lifestyle is crucial for the well‐being of children and their families, not limited to eczema treatment alone.
