What Causes Rashes On The Wrists, Ankles And Face Of An Infant?
My granddaughter is 14 months old and has a rash on her wrists ankles face etc. Has had this rash for months. Was told it was ecsema but has gotten worse. Tried stopping milk but did not seem to make a difference. This rash is very itchy. I think at times during the day she is so itchy that I think she wants to scratch off her skin. She is very iritable. Any suggests to help her?
