softcal lotion is not for skin infection. it consist of calamine,aloe vera,liquid paraffin. it is anti septic,antiallergic,soothing agent. you can apply all over body,even over face. it checks itching .take anti allergic 'benadryl 'with this lotion. this is symptomatic treatment. consult dermatologist for proper diagnosis & treatment. get blood test for tlc,dlc,total eosinophil count,ige,blood sugar,urinalysis,stool exam.for ova & cyst.
