Baby has rashes all over his body

1. The baby's bumps all over the body may be urticaria

The baby's health is the biggest concern of parents, so if pimples appear all over the body, they will be very worried. However, this situation is very common in daily life, so it is particularly important to understand the cause and find scientific and effective treatment methods. The most likely cause of the bumps on your baby's body is infantile urticaria, also known as urticaria, which requires timely medical treatment.

Infantile urticaria, commonly known as urticaria, is a common allergic skin disease and also a common skin disease in children. When the disease occurs, there will be wheals (groups) of varying sizes on the skin. When you touch them, you will find that they feel hard and itchy. The surface antigens of the urticaria can be seen in the pores. A slight scratch on the skin may result in a red mark slightly higher than the skin surface. This is caused by the cells and fluid in the blood vessels leaking out of the blood vessels.

The wheals of the affected child appear and disappear quickly, and leave no traces in childhood, but they are prone to recurrence, possibly several times a day. Urticaria in children can occur in any part of the body. When it involves the digestive tract, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea may occur. It can also cause symptoms such as edema, chest tightness, breathlessness, suffocation, and bronchial asthma. Parents should take their children to the hospital for treatment in time.

2. What causes urticaria in children?

1. Internal factors.

(1) The baby has a hereditary allergic constitution, or his or her vascular, neurological and immune functions are impaired. If allergens such as pollen, mold, and animal dander are eaten or inhaled, they can easily pass through the thin intestinal wall and enter the blood. Because babies have abundant subcutaneous capillaries, the symptoms will appear immediately on the skin.

(2) Imperfect gastrointestinal system and weak immunity.

2. External factors.

The most common external factors that cause baby urticaria are drugs and food:

(1) Food: nuts, seafood, eggs, strawberries, mushrooms, milk, etc.

(2) Drugs: penicillin, streptomycin, sulfonamides, aspirin, chloramphenicol, furazolidone, serum, vaccines, etc.

(3) Inhalants: pollen, dust, smoke, etc.

(4) Sources of infection: bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, etc.

(5) Animal and plant irritants: bed bugs, mites, nettles, kudzu, etc.

(6) Physical factors: excessive cold, excessive heat, cold wind, sunlight and stimulation from certain skin care products, etc.

After finding out the cause of your baby's urticaria, preventing your child from coming into contact with these allergens can effectively reduce the number of times your child gets hives.
