POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy9 months agoA. If your 6-month-old baby has rough, dry skin, and peeling around the neck and back, it could be due to a few reasons, including dryness, irritation, or a mild skin condition like eczema or a reaction to fabrics or detergents. To address this, you can start by gently moisturizing the affected areas. Use a baby-safe, fragrance-free moisturizer or petroleum jelly, applying it after bath time while the skin is still damp to lock in moisture. Ensure you're using mild, hypoallergenic soaps and avoid hot water during bath time, as it can dry out the skin further. If the peeling persists, try to keep the baby's skin clean and dry, especially around the neck folds, where moisture can accumulate. You may want to use a soft, cotton cloth to gently wipe the area and prevent further irritation. If the skin doesn't improve or shows signs of infection, redness, or severe irritation, it's best to consult a pediatrician, as they may recommend a specific treatment or identify if the condition is something like eczema or a fungal infection.
