Betol ke pasal "kurap susu" ni? Ada ke? Some people say - especially kata owang2 tua atau mak-mak, makcik-makcik yang so 'experience'... dorang selalu cakap pasal kurap susu or whatever they call it lah... entah kawan pon tak tau sangat... They say, pasal kita tak lap muka baby after susu badan (breastfeed). So, the susu badan yang harmless ni telah membuat muka budak kena kurap... Ya Allah! Mana punya theory ni? So gua pon dah confused... Gua lap muka baby after every feed, apa... So, mana logik nyer?
Well, unfortunately, Noah happens to kena rashes-like spots on his face. Sedih nah kawan nengok dia gitu. But we all sabar je... Abeh, nak buat apa?
We consulted the paediatrician & he told us not to worry. This is what they called "Milia". I did ask him about "kurap susu" - dia ketawa kao!!! He said there's no such thing, he said. Babies skin are usually very sensitive, nasib ah kalau some babies ada spotty skin. In most cases adalah kerna (cheh!) blocked sebaceous glands that lubricate babies nyer skin ler... Buat takot jer... "kurap susu" konon... Seram mak, nyah!
My newborn has tiny white bumps on her nose and cheeks. What are they?
They're called milia. They're harmless and they're very common — about 40 percent of newborn babies get them, most often on the upper cheeks, nose, or chin. Some babies have just a few, and others have many of them.It can be upsetting to see your beautiful infant's skin covered in these little bumps, but they aren't painful or contagious. And they'll go away without any treatment in two or three weeks. You may spot similar bumps on your baby's gums or on the roof of her mouth. These are called Epstein's pearls, and they're also harmless.
What causes milia?
Milia occur when dead skin becomes trapped in tiny pockets near the surface of your baby's skin. When the surface of the bump wears away, the dead skin is sloughed off and the bump disappears.
What can I do to help clear them up?
You don't need to do anything at all. The bumps will go away on their own, without treatment, in a few weeks, although it's possible for them to last a month or two. Doctors recommend that you not put any creams or ointments on the milia. And don't try to squeeze these pimple-like bumps to make them go away faster — that could cause scarring. Vigorous washing and scrubbing isn't a good idea either: It won't help and it could irritate your baby's sensitive skin. Try to be patient. Your child will soon have her baby-smooth complexion back.
