Red dots on baby's head

2024-05-04 03:45:26
Hi Doc, While massaging, I noticed 3 small red dots on my baby's head (2.5 months old). Since his head is full of hairs, I do not know if these are there since birth or came lately. Also dandruff type stuff is there which might be start of cradle cap but I am concerned about these 3 red dots. Attaching the pictures along. Baby's weight, sleep and feeding seems to be normal.

It's a haemangioma, a benign growth of blood vessels
Next Steps
Nothing need be done unless they get infected or bleed. After 1yr generally they start to fade
Health Tips
Be careful if combing hair, prevent scratching by baby as he grows
