Common Infant Rashes
Most baby rashes are temporary and respond well to simple medical guidance. We help parents identify and manage the most frequent concerns.
- Cradle Cap: Scaly, crusty patches on the scalp.
- Heat Rash: Small red bumps caused by blocked sweat ducts.
- Milium: Tiny white bumps often seen on the nose and cheeks.
- Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis): Dry, itchy patches that require specialized care.
Gentle Care Options
We prioritize "skin-minimalism" and safe ingredients for babies:
| Rash Type | Treatment Path |
|---|---|
| Cradle Cap | Gentle oiling and specialized pediatric shampoos. |
| Heat Rash | Keeping skin cool and using light, breathable fabrics. |
| Infectious Rashes | Mild antibiotic or antifungal pediatric formulations. |
Dr. Manali's Advice
Avoid using "medicated" powders or harsh soaps on your infant's skin without a doctor's advice. A baby's skin is highly absorbent, and improper products can cause more harm than good. Stick to fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizers and always do a patch test for new products.
