When a baby develops milk crust (infantile eczema), symptoms can be relieved under a doctor's guidance by applying medications such as Fule cream or vitamin E ointment. If the symptoms are more severe, topical corticosteroid medications may be required, such as desonide ointment or mometasone furoate ointment. During treatment, it is important to keep the skin clean and well-maintained.
