Hi Yamini! Since cradle cap is due to immature enzyme production in newborn babies, you can't really clear it up once and for all until the baby is old enough. But you can use Borago oil to treat it. Very efficient! <a href="http://www.easybabylife.com/cradle-cap.html">Learn more about cradle cap and how to treat it here.</a> Eczema is a whole other business. Actually science doesn't really know why it occurs yet! Babies often get eczema because of their skin being dry. It can also be due to food allergies or being sensitive to detergents, for example. Try to avoid soap as much as you can for your baby, since it really makes the skin dry. Use a good baby lotion if you have to. And watch for signs of allergies. Good luck! /Paula
