After treat baby ezema white patches what treatment for white patches?
A doctor has provided 1 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.
