How To Overcome The Pimples On My Eyes And Lids And The Black Heads On My Genitalia?

My 5 year old son has little in grown pimples all around his eyes and in lids. They are not blackheads so you can't pop them. He has blackheads though on and around his genitalia. What is causing this? Treatments? He is still in a pull-up at night and we wash his genitalia area in morning but none of it in both locations will go away.

Help and thanks!

Hi,

It seems that your son may be having milia around eyes and genitalia. Milia are the small cysts containing whitish material and look like blackheads or comedones. The condition is benign. And in some patients they may disappear without treatment. Still, if they are there, rupture the milia remove it by needle or electrocauery under local anaesthesia may be done. For that you consult dermatologist. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
