How Do You Clean A Babys Cradle Cap Dandruff Painlessly?
The mere appearance of cradle cap can be very upsetting to parents, but is a very common problem and not painful to babies. Typically it disappears by the child’s first birthday. Learn to clean baby’s cradle cap dandruff without hurting baby, and its scaly appearance can be minimized until it goes away on its own. Be aware of the soft spots on the baby’s scalp and be very gentle when applying any oils or shampoo. There are two soft spots, one that fuses at about four months, the other at about a year. They are covered by a thick membrane to protect the brain, so don’t be afraid to clean over them, just use very gentle pressure. Comb the flakes out of your infant’s hair with a fine-toothed comb. If you see flakes that are still attached to the scalp, don’t try to remove them, as this could be painful and can possibly lead to infection. Be patient, and know that the appearance of cradle cap sometimes takes several days worth of treatment to be effective. Massage your baby’s scalp gently
