Skin rashes
My 1 year 7 month son has rashes in his hands (back side), thighs and in cheeks from last 2 months. On pediatrician advice, initially I have used calam3 lotion and levocetrizine, but no relief. Then T bact ointment but no relief again and finaaly I have used clotrimazole. Which was effective but only 50-60 %. No fever, no itching. No history of skin problem.
