A member asked:
My 3 mo has rashes on his chest, face&behind ears and my mother in law watch him for aday,she used triamcinolone ace0.1%.it works but is it safe 4him?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, not safe: One day of use will not harm him but this is too strong of a steroid cream to use on a 3 month old. Please do not use any steroid cream on the baby unless it is prescribed by the doctor. Babies often have rashes and usually they resolve on their own. If they are severe please take him to see the doctor.
