What Causes Yellowish Pimple On Clitoris Of An Infant?
Question: Hi,
My 5 and a half month baby has yellowish or creamish kind of pimple on her clitoris. I noticed it today when I saw her scratch her diaper. She does not have temperature or anything unusual going on. Could this just be a diaper rash or is it something else?
Thanks,
XXXX
