Guest guest Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Try a bandaid and neosporin. Its should soften it up and heal at the same time. Poor little boy!

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 My miracle heal-all for cracked, chafed, chapped etc skin is Lansinoh ointment that is made for breastfeeding moms and their cracking/soreness issues. It comes in a purple tube and you can get it usually at Walmart in the baby department and most drug stores have it as well. It is great.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Will do. Wasn't sure if I should keep it soft or not. To top it off, also has a cold, an ear infection, and is going on no sleep whatsoever from last night. Poor buddy. frogabog wrote:Try a bandaid and neosporin.
