Let his doctor look: Kids with eczema have dry areas of skin, and are drier overall. Dermatologists recommend CeraVe for it's ceramides ingredient, which helps make eczema patches more normal. One can add hydrocortisone 1% cream, twice a day for a week, to normalize the skin faster (his pediatrician can show where to put hydrocortisone, and where it is not needed). Cradle cap may or may not need hydrocortisone.
