A. kindly apply moisturizing lotion (atogla / cetaphil / physiogel / oilatum) or virgin coconut oil on the skin of the child 4 to 5 times per day anzd if the problem still continues for more than two weeks then meet your doctor. do not apzply any type of cream lotion or powder which is causing allergy on the skin.
