My 10 month old baby has recently developed light white discoloration on her cheeks. what cud be the reason. showed it to doctor he prescribed mometasol but isnt helping much

Well! I think you must consult another doctor as one can advice for general cough and cold as what home remedies can be done but one should visit a doctor if something else other than normal day today ailments bother. But I am sure it would be something that be fine with medication or perhaps some supplement as it may happen because of lack of some nutrients in body.

mum, these patches are actually common, and often appear after exposure to the sun. it can actually also be a very mild form of eczema, so if your baby has dry skin, it will be more prominent. check with your doctor as you mentioned the medication is not helping, you can also visit a pediatric skin specialist for the same.

mom i would suggest you take the suggestion from another doctor to have a better idea. my elder one had mild eczema and this was a symptom she had developed. do take the advice of at least 1 or 2 more doctors so that you can start with the right treatment in time.

Go for another doctor ... its btr to use medicated products rather than using commercial products ..

thanks
