HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really understand the problem of your baby, if it is infection then the steroid containing ointment may flair up the condition better try povidone ointment it will give nice result and oral antibiotic would be much helpful try Amoxiciline pediatric syrup 10 ml trice a day if it does not subsided then you will have to take the kid to the skin specialist for second opinion, take care have nice day.
