Newborn Rashes
By the end of this presentation, participants should be able to recognize and distinguish between common newborn rashes, such as erythema toxicum neonatorum, neonatal acne, milia, and diaper dermatitis.

They will also become familiar with evidence-based management strategies for these rashes, including when to observe, when to intervene, and when to refer to a specialist. Finally, participants will be equipped with communications skills to effectively counsel and educate parents about newborn rashes, including explaining the benign nature of common rashes, offering reassurance, providing guidance on at-home care, and addressing parental concerns.
