Brief Answer:
This is eczema - suggested remedies

Detailed Answer:
Hi... I have just seen the image and understand your concern. This is eczema...a sort of skin allergy.

The trick of the management is keeping the skin moist and never allowing it to be dry. For this oil massage and lotions like Atogla will help.

Regarding cure options - eczema is a sort of allergy...allergies can be controlled But usually kids grow out of it...that is as the age progresses, they become better starting from 6 months and rarely it can go on till 1.5 years of age.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
