This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
when he was born he had 5 to 6 pustules on his face.the pediatrician said they are 'milia'.the next day[his second day of life]he was fully covered by these pustules on the face and they were very small with outer ring red in color but filled with pus.he could'nt open his eyes.i took some hot water and a tissue and wiped his eyes with it and they probably burst open and he was able to open his eyes.he was ok the whole day but when he came back to me from the nursery he had it from head to toe.i immediately alerted the dr.and he did a blood test a skin test and later told he was having a staph infection and gave him antibiotics for 5days.aafetr a week he had them again and i again rushed him to dr.who started a course of antibiotic injections for 5days followed by oral antibiotics.he was given mometasone to apply on his skin.the most horrible part was the dr asked me to break open his pustules with gauge pas and apply salt water to it.this was most horrible .but i did for 2 days only and then he was ok.by the end of his first month he developed jaundice.it lasted a month.then he was prescribed emollients and corticosteroids.nothing is working.now his eczema gets severe by each passing day.he was completely eczema free only on our last trip to indoa for 3 months.not a single flare up.soft smooth wonderful skin.dermatologist said its due to dry weather.[i live in the gulf where its too hot and dry.]we cant live without air conditioners here due to the heat.this must have caused his adenoids and tonsils prob.but now he has sleep apnea.as i write this he has woken up more than 5 times.he is unable to sleep well.a long post but i wanted to give more details so that the whole history is out there for you to evaluate.
