Question: is cradle cap and eczema the same?
Answer: It's easy to confuse baby eczema (also called infant eczema or atopic dermatitis) with cradle cap. But there are some key differences. Cradle cap is much less red and scaly. It generally clears up by 8 months and usually appears on the scalp, sides of the nose, eyelids and eyebrows, and behind the ears.
