My 5 month old baby has patches on his tummy, what should I do?
32-year-old woman
My 5 month old baby has had dry red patches on his tummy for several days. He hasn't started eating, has been drinking the same milk since he was born and I haven't changed his soap.
Should I go see a doctor? My baby doesn't seem to be suffering but I'm worried...

Good morning, Mrs,
I am reassured that you report a good general condition of your child. Simply monitor the situation, apply a fragrance-free moisturizer such as Aveeno or Base Glaxal, as often as necessary.
If the situation persists for more than a week, don't hesitate to consult a doctor, as a precaution.
I remain available if you have any further questions
