Towel dry (gently) then put some hydrocortizone cream on the lesions. It works, at least with my little girl... Over the counter works but prescription strength works better. I can check the name of the cream if you want.

I am nervous about putting cortizone on my 3 y/o it seems a little too intense for the little guy.
We were up in North Carolina for a long weekend and all the really cold plus heat in the house really did a job on him. Its good to be back in Florida where the temps are more even.
We use only natural soaps to wash him but never thought of the laundry. My wife found some detergent that is really expensive but she is going to get it tomarrow.
Anything and any little thing we think might help we will try. Its so hard to see him like this. He itches in his sleep and we know he is not getting a good nights sleep from this which in turn makes him difficult during the day. Its a horrible condition.
