What is the reason for the red spots on the child?

The baby's skin has red spots and itching symptoms, which is closely related to the child's skin allergies. For example, allergies occur during child skin care, allergies are caused by adverse stimulation, etc., which are prone to such symptoms. The most common one is eczema, which is the most common disease in babies where red spots and itching occur. In addition, the baby's drooling, mites, and clothing irritation can easily cause such symptoms.

Reason 1: Eczema

Babies aged 0-1 are at a high risk of eczema. At the beginning, the baby is prone to crying. Gradually, eczema will make the baby feel itchy. If scratched, it will be painful and itchy, thus affecting the baby's sleep and diet.

Reason 2: Saliva/sweat

Babies often spit and sweat easily at night. If the saliva and sweat are not cleaned promptly and thoroughly, they will easily breed bacteria and cause discomfort to the baby's skin.

Reason 3: Mites

Once babies receive many cute plush toys, they will love them and hold the plush babies every day. It just so happens that these items are prone to breeding mites. If babies are surrounded by dust mites every day, how can their skin be healthy in the long run?

Reason 4: toiletries

Most bath gels and shampoos for adults contain excessive amounts of fragrance. If you use these products to take a bath or wash your hair, you are likely to get allergies.

Reason 5: Clothing

The formaldehyde content in some clothes and bedding fabrics on the market exceeds the standard. If babies wear these clothes, it is easy to cause skin allergies. In addition, pay attention to the chemical composition of the detergent and avoid using detergents containing allergens.

Reason 6: Food allergies

Food can also cause skin allergies, which is a cause that many people tend to overlook. Many common allergens are children’s favorite foods, beverages they usually drink, smells they like to smell, or places where they often play, and are often overlooked.

What to do if your baby has skin allergies

Tip 1: Prevent scratching behavior

Baby skin allergies are usually accompanied by itching symptoms, and the baby can't help scratching. The more itchy it is, the more severe it becomes. If the baby is allowed to behave like this, it will form a vicious cycle of "itching - scratching - more itching - scratching again".

Trick 2: Clean saliva and sweat in time

If your baby spits, wipe it off immediately. In addition, it is necessary to maintain appropriate temperature and humidity in the room to avoid sweating and to prevent saliva and sweat from causing secondary irritation to the baby's fragile skin.

Tip 3: Stay away from allergenic elements

If your baby has skin allergies, keep him away from allergenic environments, such as pollen, mold, dust, trees, tobacco, smoke, perfume, gasoline, paint, pesticides, detergents, medicines, pets, carpets and other allergenic factors.

Tip 4: Use moisturizing products after bathing

If your baby has skin allergies, reduce excessive bathing and avoid using irritating soaps. After bathing your baby, immediately use a moisturizing product that is mild, non-irritating, and can mildly treat baby's skin allergies.

Trick 5: Go to the hospital to identify allergens

There are many factors that cause allergies. Who is causing allergies to your baby? It is best for mothers to take their babies to the hospital for allergen testing. Once the allergen is identified, continued contact with the allergen should be stopped immediately and the allergic reaction will usually disappear naturally.
