Hi my son is 3 months old and has flaky thick layer of cradle cap. What can be done? After shower 🚿 i tried to remove it using comb but hair is also coming along the dead skin. Will it resolve by itself. Is oiling 15min before shower cause more dead skin? Or do i need just was with shampoo without oil. Will it come again in the future? What can be done for it?
