What are white spots on a baby's face1

  1. The white spots on most babies' faces are chestnut rashes. Millet rash is actually the scientific name for prickly heat. In most people's minds, prickly heat should be red. In clinical practice, prickly heat can be red or white. White prickly heat is called crystalline millet rash.

  2. Most children develop milia on their faces when they are young, mostly on their nose, chin, forehead, or cheeks. Milia on their faces does not itch or hurt, so it generally does not require treatment and can disappear in about 2-3 weeks.

  3. Some parents, in order to help their children's millet rash disappear quickly, may apply some ointment to their children or directly squeeze these white dots with their hands. These practices are all wrong. Do not give your children medication casually, nor can you squeeze them directly with your hands. Once squeezed, it can easily lead to bacterial infection. The best way is to wash your child's face twice a day to keep the facial skin clean. When washing your face, be sure to use warm water. After washing your face, gently press and wipe the skin with a pure cotton towel. Do not use force, as it may also puncture the millet rash and cause skin infection.
