Skin Rash : What kind of rash is this? If this is only due to dry skin, then emollient or cream could help. Some times the rashes are due to inflammatory or infectious process. Infection needs antibiotic and inflammation gets better with steroid. Do you have a picture of the lesions?

Vague: What were the diagnoses? What "lotion" was "put on it"? Without any details you provide no clues to any rational approach. Try again.
