What Is The White Head Looking Pimple On The Head And Chin In Baby?
My five month old has a white head looking pimple on the side of his head and one on his chin, they are not too big but Im worried that it could be mersa or something like that. I always keep him clean but I dont know if he has been around anyone that has the disease or has had it. I have been looking it up online and I have seen alot of people say baby acne but its not alot of bumps only two. Should I be worried and am I over reacting? I just want to be sure and make sure my baby is ok.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have white head looking pimple on the head and chin in baby which seems like baby acne which is because of increased sensitivity of getting pigmented, clogged pores of salivary glands, and hormonal changes. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to apply cream rich in Azelaic acid or Kojic acid. Use clindamycin gel as well. Apply aloe vera gel it will resolve. Apply cotton dipped in tea tree oil to lighten the pigments. Use medicated sunscreen such as Tancare rich in SPF 30. You can visit dermatologist once and can go for chemical peeling or micro abrasion if your symptoms not resolving. Take supplements rich in vitamin C.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
