He put him on a diet, or rather himself, since at that time he fed almost exclusively breast milk, and began to bathe him in weak solutions of celandine, nut leaves, train, alternately changing herbs for baths.

At first, the celandine herb was taken so that it only dyed the bath water, then seeing quite successful changes, made the solution a little richer and reduced the procedure time from twenty minutes to ten. For a month we coped with the skin reactions of my son.
