#AskTheExpert hai doctor am parent of 15 days old baby girl, she got pimples on her face how to reduce those please suggest. thank you

Question

Accepted Answer

these could be baby acne which is common in babies.

You can try applying coconut oil regularly or apply baby cetaphil lotion.  These are good for any kind of rashes.  But it will eventually depend on what suits your baby's skin type. You must always apply in a small area first and see if it helps. Only if it reduces apply all over. Determine the cause of the rshes and going forward avoid it. Always use mild detergent to wash baby's clothes also and dry them completely in the sun before using. If still doesn't reduce please consult your pediatrician itself once.
