my 8-month-old daughter just developed this sore/rash on her scalp?
this could really be eczema or psoriasis. the dermatologist can confirm it. simple remedies — like adding oil to bathwater or using a good moisturizer on the skin — can also help. if your baby’s psoriasis become more severe it may need to be treated with light therapy or even oral medication. if itching is a problem the doctor may also prescribe antihistamines and if it looks like there’s a bacterial infection (from scratching the rash for example) she’ll prescribe oral antibiotics. thanks.
