My baby has a cradle cap, what should I do?
Cradle cap is very common in babies under 6 month old, and it usually disappears by itself. It is important to not try to remove it, as this may irritate the skin or even accentuate the phenomenon. Do not worry, this does not indicate poor hygiene or any skin disease and does not cause any discomfort to your baby. It remains above all a cosmetic problem. The extent of the cradle cap will gradually decrease, but it is important to use appropriate care. However, if you see the scabs developing in an abnormal way (redness, discomfort, itching...) then we recommend that you seek medical advice.
