Is Discharge From Behind The Ear Of My Infant Daughter Normal?
Hello, my 7 week old girl has a liquidy discharge from behind her ear. It has some crusties as well as it looks as though almost new skin is trying to grow in. But I m not sure if I should just put A&D ointment on it or even if this is normal. Thanks so much!

By what you say I feel that this may be eczema or a fungal infection. If you can get back to me with an image I would be able to guide you further better.
