Answer

When a baby has eczema, especially facial eczema, they may feel itchy but will not scratch; they only shake their head to relieve the discomfort. Seborrheic dermatitis can also cause a baby to shake their head. Inflammation often recurs behind the baby’s ears, where it feels rough to the touch. Upon close inspection, you might notice yellow crusts, and due to the intense itching, the baby keeps shaking their head.
