A member asked:

My 8 month old baby has some dryness and some scabs on his toes. it looks like fungal infection or eczema.. what can i apply on his skin? thank you in advance?

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor, preferably a pediatrician. Wish you and your baby good health!
