Hello,
I recommend consulting with a pediatrician for a physical exam and performing some tests to check for rheumatological disorders, which could lead to this clinical situation. Atogla lotion is just an emollient cream, which help hydrate the skin.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
