Sounds like it could be eczema, does it turn white when you press on a red patch? You could always ask her doctor for a referral to a dermatologist.

My 4mo old has had severe eczema since 2mo and she has had dry, flaky and red weepy patches.

Looks like a form of psoriasis to me? I have it on my face and scalp, have had it for years since I was a baby. I’d try Vaseline and just keeping it clean. Something diet wise could also cause flare ups if it is psoriasis. I’d look into the possibility!

Could be allergy related too if she isn’t putting on weight too! Maybe a dairy allergy?
