Just half a teaspoon, rub it in at night, you can wash it out in the morning. Don't pick at it, it will just slowly work it's way off. </p> <p>Daily massaging will keep it at bay. </p> http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/topic/12#post-26 Fri, 02 Feb 2007 23:11:52 +0000 nicole 26@http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/ <p>I am not a doctor, but some ways to help with cradle cap that I know of are, gentle brushing away the loosened soft crusts with a soft brush. Over washing will make the condition worse and picking at the crusts can lead to bleeding and infection. You might like to massage the scalp with calendula ointment (available at most chemists). Cradle cap can last for up to three years so if it doesn't look to be getting better, see a GP. Hope these remedies help. </p> http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/topic/12#post-24 Fri, 02 Feb 2007 04:07:58 +0000 danielle 24@http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/ <p>Please tell me how i can get rid of cradle cap. </p>
