Hey there. My baby is 5 weeks old and I'm a FTM. She had the typical baby acne but now shes developing yellow crusty ears and her spots are looking more like a rash than acne. Should I be concerned or will this pass without treatment?

Question

Answer

I would call your child’s doctor. They can tell you more about it and how to make baby better.

Answer

Call your pediatrician

Answer

No I would take her to get that checked out

Answer

Ok update my pediatrician says it's a form of seborrheic which is basically cradle cap. Apparently it can spread to parts of the face. He said to wash with soap and water and if inflamed to apply a thin layer of 0.5% hydrocortisone.
