for white patches please consult dermatologist. if it is only dryness because of winter apply cetaphil DAM body lotion for body & Atogla moisturizer for face. do not apply soap while bathing him. Instead use cetaphil cleansing lotion. Baby's skin is extremely sensitive. soap will destroy its original texture. this lotion doesn't contain soap so it wont gather foam on applying. hence do not rub. simply apply the lotion n clean with water.
