Question
A 3.5-month-old baby has developed many yellow pimples on the head, which appeared after birth and are now increasing in number. What should be done?
Answer
This condition may be due to the baby having eczema. Parents do not need to worry excessively; as the baby starts to introduce solid foods and their skin immune system matures, eczema usually gradually diminishes and disappears on its own. If necessary, ointments can be applied to the baby’s skin for treatment.
