Sunscreen for kids

2024-06-09 14:05:57
Hello Doctor, Is it necessary to use sunscreen for kids. My son is 2 years and 4 months old. Until now I didn't use any sunscreen for him. Only using atogla baby products. Can you please suggest baby sunscreen lotion. And is it Mandatory to apply in rainy season and when in indoors also? Please suggest. Thank you.
