What to do if a newborn baby has a red spot on his head

What is the reason for red spots on the head of a newborn baby? There are many reasons. The small red spots may be eczema or heat rash.

Eczema is a common skin disease in infancy.

It is easy to occur in the 2-3 months after birth. External medications can alleviate the symptoms. It often recurs.

It is recommended that babies should use topical medications under the guidance of a doctor; avoid direct sunlight on the affected area, maintain indoor air humidity, and open windows for ventilation frequently; babies' clothes should be breathable and not too thick; do not use alkaline lotions to clean the affected area, cut nails frequently to avoid infection; give babies plenty of water and eat less irritating food.
