Infant milk crust (eczema) can be alleviated with topical medications. Commonly used ointments include vitamin E ointment and zinc oxide cream. These ointments are all natural and will not cause any harm to the baby's skin when applied. During treatment, proper skincare for the baby should be maintained—keep the skin clean and hygienic, and try to use warm boiled water for washing the face.
