Your baby’s rashes may look a little scary, but they rarely require immediate medical attention, says pediatrician William Sears on the website AskDrSears.com. If you spot a rash on your baby, knowing how to identify it can help you treat it effectively, figure out the likely cause of your child’s rash and determine how quickly you need to see your child’s pediatrician. If your child has a rash that persists for four weeks, you should have your doctor check it out, says Sears.
