AbhayaMom of a 15 yr 8 m old boy1 Year agoA. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. Please apply lacto calamine lotion on the affected areas. Also you can apply MamaEarth baby rash cream on it. Please masaage baby hair with BabyHug coconut oil and leave overnight. Also use a sulphate free and paraben free shampoo like MamaEarth shampoo to wash baby hair. Please massage baby with BabyHug coconut oil. Also use Sebamed soap to bathe the baby. Use a good brand moisturiser like BabyHug moisturiser or MamaEarth moisturiser for the baby. Also use a good brand sunscreen lotion for the baby.
Thanks and take care
