A. Hello,yes, can use coconut oil, Know your child’s particular triggers to avoid exposure Implement a daily bathing and moisturizing routine to protect skin and lock in moisture Use prescription medication consistently . Lukewarm soaking baths (less than 10-20 minutes) Mild soaps that are fragrance free and with a neutral or low pH Moisturizing skin immediately after bath
