A. the most common cause of itching on the skin is due to dryness allergy and sometimes it might be due to skin allergy with multiple reasons. it is very important to find the cause otherwise it will not improve. if it is due to dry skin you can apply coconut oil again and again and if it is due to some other reasons like insect bite or drug reaction or any other pathology you can go for attarax anti itch lotion and then meetd your doctor and do not apply any type of powder or cream without medical consultation. give plenty of water to drink and remain in contact with your doctor. also do not give any typex of food or drinks which might cause allergy

A. For this I suggested to apply calamine lotion you can use it about two times or three times in the day depending upon the convenience and comfort this is going to help him reducing down the rash and the small small pimples that your child is having on the body
