avoid any oil massage in the scalp for now The rash can be seen at 2 places - ensure no insect bite. Change the bed linen, the bedding should washed in hot water and dried well in sun, ensure the soap is thoroughly washed out from the clothes (soap too irritates the delicate skin of infants). Keep the mosquitoes out Oint T Bact is safe and gives good results to take care of any secondary infection
