Over the counter eczema cream for babies?

Dr. Hess Udder Ointment can be used for all skin issues including eczema cream for babies. I have a 10 month old baby and we have used this ointment on her for several weeks now. The results have been impressive.

Dr. Hess Udder Ointment contains 13 emollients or skin moisturizers, a blood circulating and oxygenating ingredient, Menthyl Salicylate. Dr. Hess Udder Ointment works so effectively because it also contains an ingredient which opens the skin pores. Once the pores are open, the 13 emollients are allowed to enter deep into the skin and begin the healing process. Dr. Hess also contains petrolatum, which has the characteristic of then rising to the surface of the skin acting as a protectorant against further skin damage.
