Dear Jyothi
We advise you to try Banyan tree leaves. As your child is very small so we have to
take care that we should not advise him some strong remedies. Take a few leaves
of Banyan tree and make a paste. Apply on the affected parts.

Dear Jyothi
Your son is only one year old, so we can not advise him a strong treatment. we
suggest you olive oil. Apply some olive oil on the affected region. Please repeat
the process for 1 week and see if you get some positive effects.
