Answer

If a baby under one week old has small pimples around their eyes that are not painful or itchy and match the skin color, these could be flat warts, caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), a viral infection commonly found in adolescents. They present as skin-colored or pinkish flat papules. Flat warts can be treated with Youxiaoshu, a Chinese medicine developed for this purpose. Additionally, they might also be caused by the transmission of HPV leading to common warts, and it is best to seek hospital treatment using laser or cryotherapy methods.
