My son has eczema on both sides of his mouth. I was wondering if there is a cream or something that could help.

If your child has eczema on both sides of the mouth, it is recommended to try applying cortate 0.5% cream in the morning and evening. If there is infection present, you can mix polysporin cream (regular) with cortate 0.5% and apply it in the morning and evening. Try to keep the affected area as dry as possible. If you do not see any improvement after 4 or 5 days, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional. Wishing your family a happy new year.
