My daughter has a rash on her face. Should I be worried?

How old is your baby? If she is a newborn then her skin is prone to rashes of all sorts. Fortunately, most of these rashes are harmless and go away on their own. Rashes that can appear on newborn's faces include baby acne which are sometimes thought to be caused by exposure in the womb to maternal hormones. No treatment is needed for this, just let time run its course. Baby acne can last for weeks or even months on a baby's skin. Another type could be Milia, which are little white bumps on the nose and face caused by blocked oil glands. When a baby's oil glands enlarge and open up in a few days or weeks, the white bumps disappear. If your baby is older, it could be eczema. It is caused by dry, sensitive skin, and sometimes allergies. Your doctor can determine if the rash looks like eczema and prescribe the appropriate treatment. Another type of rash could be prickly heat which is quite common in a tropical and humid country. It looks like small red bumps, mostly on areas of baby's body that tend to overheat and sweat, like the neck, diaper area, and armpits. Best to try to keep the area dry and avoid overheating by dressing baby in loose-fitting clothing.
