Question
Within 48 hours of birth, a newborn is experiencing skin rashes and constant crying without any fever. What could be the possible causes and how should one deal with it?
Answer
Hello, based on the description, the newborn may have developed eczema. Eczema is a chronic and recurrent skin condition. It is recommended to apply an antipruritic and antibacterial ointment, such as Skin Care, to the affected area. If the baby is breastfed, the mother should be cautious about her diet, consuming more fruits and vegetables and avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
