Hi,

Thank you for your query.

I believe you are concerned about the blisters in the mouth of the baby. What is the size and what is the colour of the content of the blisters? Without having a look at the blisters it is not possible to give a definite opinion but it could be a part of the eczema.

I see no reason for giving an antibiotic for blisters. Secondly it is very uncommon for a 5 month old child to contract salmonella infection. Was the infection proven by culture?

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing the baby an early recovery.

Regards,
