What is the fastest way to drown the neck?

When the folds of our skin become red and rotten, it is commonly known as flooded skin. The main feeling is pain, a burning pain. In daily life, because the baby's skin is very tender, coupled with the influence of sweat, skin flooding is very common. Especially the neck area has many wrinkles, so parents must pay attention to prevention in advance. So, what is the fastest way to drown your neck?

Hot towel compress

If the baby's neck is not severely soaked, you can use a hot towel to apply heat to the baby's neck, which can kill bacteria and moisturize the skin.

Specific steps:

Cover the baby's neck with a hot towel for about 20 minutes each time, and do this 3-5 times a day.

Notice:

1. Don't make the hot towel too hot to avoid scalding the baby.

2. After the hot compress, wipe it dry with a dry cloth to avoid leaving water stains that aggravate the symptoms of neck drowning.

Sunbathing

Let your baby's neck bask in the sun. If the baby's neck is soaked, it will become red and itchy due to the growth of bacteria. You can take the baby under the sun where the sunlight is not too strong, let the baby's head tilt back, and expose his neck to the sun.

Sunbathing Note:

1. Mothers can also let their babies expose themselves to more sun. Appropriate ultraviolet radiation is beneficial for sterilization and can promote the development of the scalp and hair growth. Ultraviolet radiation can also produce endogenous vitamin D after shining on the skin.

2. However, mothers should never expose their baby's scalp to the sun. It is best to wear a sun hat to prevent sunburn on the scalp.

3. In summer, it is best to take your baby out to bask in the sun at around eight or nine in the morning or around four or five in the afternoon when the light is not too strong.

Change bib

Change your baby's bib into a pure cotton and breathable one. Don't buy polyester bibs as they are not breathable and will aggravate the redness and swelling of your baby's neck. It would be good if you use something breathable like a mosquito net.

How to choose a bib:

1. Generally, pure cotton materials are used, which are breathable, soft, comfortable and absorbent. You don't have to worry about your baby getting his clothes wet when drinking water, eating or drooling. Some are made of viscose, which makes them easier to wear.

2. The bib should not be too big, and should not have too many ruffles or woven lace around it. It should just be generous and lively in style.

3. Bibs are more suitable for young babies, as they are easy to put on, take off and change.

4. Do not tie the lace-up bib too tightly. It is best not to wear it after feeding or when the baby is playing alone to avoid accidents.

Apply erythromycin ointment

If your baby's neck is severely red and swollen after being submerged, you should apply erythromycin ointment to his neck, which can kill bacteria and reduce swelling.

Keep the skin on the neck clean and dry. Obese babies should bathe frequently. Use a soft cloth to absorb the water in the folds after bathing. If local epidermal exfoliation is found, apply 2% to 3% gentian violet solution for a short time. The area must be small and do not apply it again if scabs are seen.
