Question
My child is 52 days old, and there are these rashes on their face. I bought Bai Cao Tang Bai Hua Gao ointment to apply, but after a few minutes, the area where the ointment was applied turned red. What could be the reason for this? Can I still use it? And what medication should I use for the child to apply if it’s milk rash without hormones?
Answer
Upon examining the baby’s facial symptoms, there are mainly some eczema issues, generally related to the baby’s allergies or dry skin. Pay attention to the care of these two aspects. It is recommended that you use some relatively gentle, hormone-free ointments, such as moisturizers, as you need to pay attention to moisture retention. If you haven’t checked for allergens for a long time, adjust your feeding method. Wishing health and thank you.
