Question

A four-month-old baby continuously rubs and pulls at their head during nap time, disturbing their sleep. Red rashes appear on the head, near the ears, and there are purulent scabs in certain body areas. What could be the cause of this? What treatment methods are available? Although the red rashes have improved after using Lankeng Skin Ning medicine for a week, the baby still scratches their head, leading to rebleeding. Baby Safe Cream from Kangying is used on the face. How should this problem be resolved?

Answer

I believe the current skin issue may be caused by a fungal infection, and suggest observing and conducting relevant checks. If confirmed to be a fungal infection, Qumisen medication can be tried. These suggestions may help with the issue of “a four-month-old baby repeatedly rubbing and pulling at their head during nap time.” I hope this helps you, and wish you health!
