Suggest Remedies For Sunburn In A Baby

We were at a party yesterday in overcast weather, but for a very brief period of 5 minutes while i breastfed my 6 week old son, he was exposed. Now he has sunburn on his face. Hes feeding quite well with plenty of wet and dirty nappies. What can i do?

HI
Well come to HCM
I appreciate your concern, if this is pure sun burn then this can be managed with "Diphenhydramine lotion" but best to wait for couple of days because this may come around on its own, if this remains as it is then try the suggested lotion, hope this information helps, take care.
I find this answer helpful
