A. Hello mom Skin diseases can be cured with the help of proper medication and yes if you already consult with your paediatrician about it so you should follow the instructions given by your doctor and continue giving the medicines which are prescribed. Don’t give anything to your baby till it is not prescribed. Happy parenting
