Question
What should I do if there’s milk crust on my newborn’s face?
Answer
Your situation may be caused by a fungal infection, which can be treated with a decoction of bark from the Alstonia tree for external washing; this method has been shown to be effective. The bark has excellent antifungal properties, but it is toxic, so it is strictly forbidden to take internally. Hello, based on your description, it is considered possible that it is caused by calcium deficiency or a lack of trace elements. You can test for trace elements and try taking Schering’s preparation, cod liver oil, and multivitamins; this will gradually improve. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
