WDYT- Rash

telicious2

I noticed this rash behinds LO's ear after a bath one night. He doesn't have it anywhere else on him and it doesn't bother (he doesn't itch it).

This is when I first noticed it


This is after putting Aquaphor on it

It looks like eczema or psoriasis to me.

My LO has had that too...but it goes away. My older two also had it. They never got it anywhere else, though, and I never got it checked out since it didn't seem to bother them. I almost think it may have to do with sweating behind the ears in their car seats.

 Eczema, I would say. Use Aquafor for a flare up like that and then Aveno Baby Eczema lotion for everyday use.

Thanks ladies! Should I keep an eye out on his diet or any dyes/perfumes?

Like PPs said use Aquaphor or Aveeno Eczema cream. Aveeno oatmeal bath helps too. You can also use hydrocortisone cream. Sometimes switching your laundry detergent can help. Ecos free and clear laundry detergent is a good one.

(June lurker here) Cradle cap.  Treat as such!

ETA: NOT psoriasis!

I get this type of thing on my hands and occasionally on my neck. It looks just like my eczema.
