Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Coming to your queries one by one:

1. Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website so that I can guide you scientifically.

2. I was expecting that there should have been a history of cow's milk and formula feed (this too contains cow's milk protein) given to the baby. I feel that your baby is having cow's milk protein allergy. Usually, babies grow out of this sort of allergy by 1 year of age.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sumanth Amperayani
