Now he is 8 months old....again 2 weeks back scaly patches were found on left shoulder and went doc....He gave momate. ...used but no result. ..Instead it spreads to the right side also on back....and reddish rashes on left arm...now another doc gave eumosone. ...and now on scalp front portion again reddish rashes develops along with itching. ..can I use same covate over there again or eumosone on scalp... One more important thing is he has nose blockage problem since his 2nd month...still it s there...During summer also he struggled a lot. ...We give nasal drops..and sometimes steam through nebuliser using normal saline. ... I and my husband have dry skin.... Please doctor I need guidance to take well care of my son...He struggled a lot so far because of these issues... Can you suggest me healthy diet also? and which medication is good for skin,scalp,and nose blockage? What are the precautions should I take? In two weeks we are going to remove his hair as a ritual, is it a right thing or not?
