Question 1

after treat baby ezema white patches what treatment for white patches?

Accepted Answer

Moisturizer: Eczema is a chronic sensitive dry skin condition. It may come and go for several years. Using a good moisturizer (something without perfumes) frequently can help. When the dry skin flakes off, the skin underneath may not have as much pigment and may appear whiter. Using a good sunscreen (to protect the skin) and moisturizer will gradually improve the skin tone.

Each patient responds differently to therapy. Current treatment options for vitiligo include topical medication, phototherapy, surgery, and others.
