#AskTheExpert Hi doctor, my son is 17 days old now,he is having skin breakout in the groin area. not using diapers. what should be done?

A. Acne in newborns can be present right after birth or develop after a few weeks. Usually, these breakouts will clear on their own with time, but breast milk can help ease them and help with your baby's sensitive skin. Soak a cotton ball in breast milk and softly pat it on your baby's face.
