My 3 month old daugheter has a rash that I believe is eczema. It is in all the creases. What can I do?


This is a red bumpy rash. Sometimes when she get hot it has a smell. It is on the fronts of her elbows, back of knees, armpits, on her neck, crack of butt...etc. She doesn't seem to be miserable. I just want her to get better. Have been using a clear detergent, no fabric softner, cetaphil bath soap and lotion, eucerin in the morning and at night. Gets better for a day and then looks awful again. Any advice?

i have a white paches on my cheeks how can i get rid of this decease?



Answers:
Sounds like a yeast infection to me (can go anywhere on the skin I believe). I'd check with her doctor who will probably prescribe an ointment to take care of it.

My son has eczema and there isn't any smell to it. Just patches of dry, rough skin that responds well to Aquaphor ointment (found at Wal-Mart).

Good luck!

Try putting corn starch or baby powder in the creases of her skin, it sounds like it may be a moisture problem.
