Black rash on baby's cheek

2025-01-28 04:24:49
There is a black rash on 8 month baby boys cheek. There was initially a scratch done through nail and he has started to crawl and falls sometime on the cheek. He does not have any pain or is not fussy. He is playful but this rash has been there for past 4 days. Is this concerning? What can I do to remove the rash ?

Hi. Usually if the rash is scratched with nails, it leaves a pigment mark which will go off gradually. You can apply coconut oil or natural aloe Vera for faster clearing. Nothing to worry as such.
Next Steps
keep a watch on similar mark on other body parts.
