EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork from Science Photo Library beautifully captures the condition known as cradle cap. The illustration showcases a close-up of a baby's scalp, revealing the dry and flaky rash characteristic of this common yet harmless form of seborrhoeic dermatitis. Cradle cap, also referred to as crusta lactea, is often seen in infants and its exact cause remains unknown. However, it typically presents as an itchy and abnormal skin disorder that can be easily identified by its distinctive appearance. The intricate detail depicted in this print allows viewers to appreciate the delicate nature of a baby's skin while highlighting the importance of proper health care for our little ones. Although usually benign, if left untreated or if the affected area becomes infected, medical attention may be required. Dermatology plays a crucial role in understanding and managing conditions like cradle cap. This visually striking artwork serves not only as an aesthetic piece but also as a reminder of the significance of dermatological research in improving our understanding and treatment options for various skin disorders.
