What should I do if my baby's neck is red and sore?

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child, and I have been very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has been experiencing a series of issues, and I am also very concerned, afraid that the child's condition will worsen. What should I do about the red and sore neck of the infant?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it might be localized eczema. Eczema is a common allergic, non-infectious, and hypersensitive superficial epidermal inflammation. It is an inflammatory skin disease affecting the epidermis and superficial dermis, caused by various internal and external factors. It can be treated with a decoction of Sophora flavescens for fumigation, which may be effective. Hello, regarding your child's condition, it is likely a case of congenital developmental malformation, which can be treated through surgical excision. The best time for surgery is around one year old. The specific surgical method will depend on the specific circumstances.
