Hello. First and foremost, most of the facial lesions are benign. There are a few lesions that need to be evaluated. If you mention boils it would be helpful if you could provide a picture. In addition please elaborate complaints in details,if the child has fever/lethargy and has trouble while breast feeding.
Next Steps
