Question : Hi Doc,
We have just shifted our house to a new house. During shifting my daughter must have been infected with dust. After 3-4 days if shifting we saw few boils on her body. We applied Jonshons Baby Cream and few got vanished. But day by the boils are increasing. Now she has around 7-8 such small boils on her body. She is 7 months old.

Kindly suggest some medicine as well as precautions.

Best Regards,
XXXX
