Sunburn on baby face, should i take it to the doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You did not say how: Old the infant is or describe the burn. Babies should not be out in the sun unless they are well protected from solar injury. Without knowing more about this, i would err on the side of caution and have your baby seen.
