Soak the head with coconut oil. It will eventually come off
Hey, my baby has it quite severely and I’ve tried lots of things that have been recommended including coconut oil, baby oil, Vaseline, dentinox shampoo, mustela treatment & also just by leaving it. Everything I tried just helped for a day or two then it came back thicker. I took him to the GP on Friday and have been given an antifungal cream. If it’s not better after 5 days, they will give us a steroid cream. If it’s bad and you can’t get on top of it, I would also speak to your GP.
This link has some good tips https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/cradle-cap/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20350400 If it is severe and the home remedies don’t work, talk to your pediatrician about using a hydrocortisone or antifungal cream. Always consult your pediatrician before using these types of medicated cream.
