A. If your baby has been diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and the rashes on their legs and hands are not improving, it's essential to follow a consistent skincare routine to help manage the condition. You can apply a thick, fragrance-free moisturizer several times a day, especially after bathing, to keep the skin hydrated. Look for products that contain ingredients like ceramides or hyaluronic acid, which help repair the skin barrier. For flare-ups, your doctor may recommend a topical corticosteroid cream to reduce inflammation; be sure to follow their instructions on usage. Avoid triggers that can irritate the skin, such as harsh soaps, detergents, or overly hot baths. If the rashes continue to persist or worsen despite these measures, consider reaching out to your pediatrician or a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options, which may include prescription medications or other therapies.
