How to remove infant scalp scabs

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Soak the cradle cap with vegetable oil, then gently comb it off with a comb. If the cradle cap is very thick, one application of oil may not remove it completely. In this case, you can apply vegetable oil 1-2 times a day until the cradle cap is fully saturated, then comb it off. Never use your hands or a comb to forcefully comb the cradle cap, as this may cause scalp damage and lead to infection.
