dry skin in babies

do any of you have any suggestions for dry skin , my tummy and breasts have gotten dry lately .

Definitely wash the baby clothes. Babies skin are very sensitive. I dried all the clothes on a lower temp setting. I would recommend using a baby safe detergent since babies skin is very sensitive it's easier to be safe than have to deal with a rash.

It's not like the normal skin peeling tho , his tummy is peeling but it's dry dead skin the skin in the creases is wet looking .

My daughter is 10 days old & her skin is so dry and peeling ! It looks painful! Should I not put lotion on her??

thankyou kevin, i guess i worry alot about stds especially hiv since a very personal thing i went thru and i just dont want to put my daughter in any risk...

i tan a lot in the tanning salon and i have what looks like dry and flaky skin on the penis is this common or is this a symptom of a herpes outbreak? And im also confused on something if u have herpes are recurrent outbreaks going to be in the same area or will they be in different areas? Im getting different answers and now im nervous because i get small little cuts in the same area every now and then but i always thought it was from friction!

Put baby oil on when your still wet after a bath or shower and just leave it to soak in. I have eczema so normally suffer from dry skin and ive done this with all 3 of my pregnancy's. It works a treat and I have minimal stretch marks.

dear sir/madam i have dry skin and i am using dove soap(white) but my skin was so dry. instead of soap what bodywashes i use. i am having line in my skin sir. my hair also dry sir and i have dandruff.

Try putting coconut oil on your face. I have very dry skin and sensitive skin and that the only thing that doesn't make me itch. Maybe also put a cool mist humidifier in you room at night. Try to drink some more water. Those r the 3 things that help me.

ve been getting these very very light slightly dry spots on the upper parts of my arm, some times they itch but rarely and only more in cold weather. They only appear around the hair follicle and are very small and white I thought it might have been because of my arm hair but could it be dry spots?

Oh yes, ive got dry skin since i got pregnant...until now, i still got it. And i use lotion everyday and drink water!

The picture looked just like what I have going on down on my penis (excluding the dry skin I have, which may be just that...dry skin), with the red lesion-type areas on the head, and a few red dots/bumps on the shaft. What do you think doctor? I know you already gave me your opinion once, but does any of this new info help confirm your thoughts or change them or..? I'd appreciate your second opinion. Thank you.

No actually anti-cholinergic side effects include dry mouth and blurred vision so dry skin might be part of that and perhaps the Geodon wasn't causing it as much as what you took before or after as dry skin did seem to be a rather common side effect of Geodon but wouldn't of course always happen.

Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. Your wife can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. She can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps. For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone as dermacort), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid. Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin.

I noticed yesterday she seems to be having a bad case of the flakes. she has a lot of dandruff in her hair. she only eats grain free food (both wet and dry) should I be giving her something to counteract this dandruff? maybe some sardines or olive oil or something. thank you!

ladies I've seen a lot of you posting on here asking for remedy a for dry skin, I've also done it myself lol. We all know that pregnancy is not very nice to us and one problem happens to be unattractive flaky dry skin that I could not get rid of! Well I have found a solution, and I thought I would share with you all hopefully it works for you too! Baby oil! ( ironic, isn't it? ) I used it two days in a row and honestly my skin could not look or feel better.

my dad is on hemo now for 3 months...dry skin is caused by lack of water in your system...dialysis removes excess water from you...

Skin problems are an extra-hepatic manifestation of Hepatitis C infection. Dry skin perhaps is an early precursor to more serious and annoying skin problems. I really don't know. I have lichen planus (from biopsy) which is probably a result of long term infection. You can google skin problems and hepatis c to get the picture of what sorts of skin problems are associated with HepC. If it is systemic, as it is with Diabetes e.g.

Too much soapy water, exposure to harsh chemicals, the normal aging process and certain types of skin diseases are some of the causes of decreased amounts of protective skin oils which in turn causes dry skin. The mainstay of management is liberal use of moisturizers after washing with luke warm water. Soap should be used minimally. Moisturizers should be reapplied liberally during the day.You can also use a topical cortisone (steroid) cream or ointment like dermacort(hydrocortisone).

i suffer from very dry skin all year but for some odd reason when the season changes my skin starts peeling and only from my chin and the side of my nose... it looks horrible like i dont wash my face. i moisturize but it doesnt help. i have to use makeup but it looks ugly at the end of the day. it is embarrasing. what can i use?
