Dr. Shah Chowdhury answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

CHILDHOOD ECZEMA:: Definitely, if the doctor prescribes. There are different types and strength of the cream/ointment. Depending on the severity of the disease the cream/ointment is chosen by the child's pediatrician or dermatologist, if the pediatrician refers the infant.
