Suggest Treatment For Pimple On Stomach Of New Born Baby

My newborn is 5days old now and he has a pimple on his stomach. It started off as a little one but it has gotten worse, bigger and a shade of yellow. And now there is one on his ball sack and the top of his leg but they not as bad yet. What could this be? is it an infection?

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
By what you quote it seems to be a skin infection or Pyoderma. I suggest you see your pediatrician before it starts spreading and it might require oral antibiotic depending on the site of lesion.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
