Brief Answer:
Erythema Toxicum Neonatorum; Apply Calamine lotion
Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us
I have gone through your query and I have also reviewed the image.
I would suggest a possibility of Erythema Toxicum Neonatorum (ETN). It is quite common in neonates and usually resolves by itself in 2-3 weeks. I suggest your friend to apply Calamine lotion, twice or thrice daiy. There is no need to apply anything else.
Regards
