Question
Dear doctor, some parents have noticed little red dots on their baby’s neck and would like to inquire about the possible causes?
Answer
Hello, little red dots on a baby’s neck may be due to untimely cleaning, combined with hot weather and thick clothing, as well as the baby vomiting without immediate cleaning. It is recommended to bathe the baby with warm water twice a day, and if the baby vomits, it should be cleaned immediately. Since a baby’s neck is shorter, it is suggested to wear turtleneck or hooded clothing. As the baby is still young and has delicate skin with underdeveloped sweat pores, it is important to pay attention to hygiene, maintain good ventilation indoors, and avoid excessive wrapping.
