Can anyone tell me what this is?

Question

What u all think about this? Doc say its eczema, some say allergy some say dermatitis. Whats the cause and what is it?

Answer

Oh my goodness poor baby.. 
My nephew had that same thing. It was eczema. They gave him prescription creams. I'd go see a doctor. 
In the meantime try CeraVe

Answer

It's eczema. Euserine I'm not sure how to spell it is what I used and it works magic . It's a little exspensive but it lasys forever and all you need is a little because it's so thick and absorbs into your skin to help moisturize very much

Answer

That's a severe case of eczema. How old is the baby?

Answer

Aw, I'm so sorry to see this. My daughter has severe eczema and it looked just like that when she was a baby. Make sure to keep the skin moisturised but always clean. Saliva and food seems to make it worse on my daughter. Also do not use baby shampoo. The chemicals in there aggravate the eczema. I got some soap substitute from my pediatrician. I also got some oil based liquid for her bath, but oil seems to make her condition worse as well. Things that really helped in summer were aloe Vera gel and in winter shea butter. I hope it won't last forever. My daughters eczema got much better after the mmr vaccine. I heard about it before, but didn't really believe it. But glad it did.

Answer

Defiantly eczema, but it looks like its opening which is what my daughters doctor always tells me to bring her in when that happens. Shea moisture has an eczema bath bar that work right away for my daughters severe eczema along with hydro 1%.

Answer

People telling you to get hydrocortisone and even high one :o, it's a very strong medicine for a little baby. Please never give hydrocortisone without prescription. Also always try the lower dosage first. People with eczema sometimes (very often actually) have it for the rest of their life and it gets worse. If you already start with 2% then how is she gonna have relief when she's older and her eczema gets worse?

Answer

Eczema. Try hydrocortisone cream 1%. or aquafor. But may be cradle cap getting on face, the hydro. cream will help. You can have them do a blood test to test for allergies but don't freak out when the results come back. My son 9m at that time showed gluten, nut, soy, milk, egg, dog allergy. If you want to keep breastfeeding Do because it build up immune system tolerance so you don't have to cut it out of diet or keep a good journal and watch. They say with the dogs is better  to expose them because it helps the immune system build up and keep tolerance. Of course every child and allergy is different. I always keep items they touch away from him and just do the air exposure. With the food he eats everything. Except nuts. Just turned 3 and eczema had not been a problem since less than a year old. The creams they give for ezcema can cause stretch marks but not aquafor. But that's probably if you have to do it everyday over a long period of time. As always talk to your doctor and you are the mother. Eczema does get better but sometimes weather cold or fever can agitate it.

Answer

That's eczema. That's because the baby has sensitive and dry skin. We consider food allergy if that happens to all over body. I suggest you to read about Eczema Management Plan which is issued by Royal Children Hospital. They teach us how to control and treat it.

Answer

Aww poor thing. 
My daughter had something that looked similar to that when she was a baby. But it turned out tht she had scabies.

Answer

My daughter had something similar - oozy, warm, and definitely pink. Turns out it was cradle cap and got infected. Dr gave me medicated cream which took care of it. I think we may have done an antibiotic too. Once it was healed, I kept Aquaphor by her crib so I'd remember to lotion her cheeks nightly.
