Rash?!

Question

This keeps coming and going. It looks awful! We thought she had ring worm, we were using lotrimin. It got a little better. We use dove sensitive lotion and it gets better and goes away and then comes back. I try breastmilk..she has an appt April 8th and I’m going to bring it up. But any ideas or recommendations?? Should I try a Benadryl cream or cortisone?

Answer

It looks like eczema to me too. Does it cause her grief? I'd recommend trying an over the counter cortisone, but make sure the rash isn't open or weeping. Our first had severe eczema on her face and steroid cream was the only thing that cleared it and then ongoing barrier cream use

Answer

I’ve seen a kiddo get a rash on the face that ended up being helped by switching to free & clear laundry detergent. These things can be hard to figure out!

Answer

Also a thought- could it possibly be from her dad? My baby gets red patches (not that bad) if my husband rubs up against her/kisses her a lot when he isn’t clean shaven.

Answer

I would try hydrocortisone. It could be eczema.
