Question

What’s causing the red bumps on a child’s head?

Answer

Red bumps appearing on a child’s head may be related to eczema. Typically, newborns are prone to eczema symptoms before the hundredth day, and these may recur, making self-healing difficult. For treating pediatric eczema, due to the child’s young age, it is generally not recommended to use oral medications. It is suggested to apply Vitamin B6 ointment while maintaining the child’s skin clean and dry. Additionally, it is best to avoid using ointments containing hormones. tags: [“Pediatrics”, “Eczema”] slug: “pediatric-75233-whats-causing-red-bumps-on-a-childs-head” summary: “Red bumps appearing on a child’s head may be related to eczema.” translationKey: “pediatric-75233” draft: false type: “posts” categories: [“FAQ”] series: [“Otorhinolaryngology”] title: “What’s Causing Red Bumps on a Child’s Head?”
