How to improve children's rough skin

Children's skin should be smooth, white and tender, and feel very elastic to the touch. However, many parents now find that their children's skin is often rough and peels. This symptom may be caused by a lack of vitamins. In terms of diet, children must be given fiber and eat vegetables and fruits regularly every day. They must develop the habit of drinking plenty of water. Long-term regular schedule can prevent rough skin.

Improvement methods:

1. There must be an appropriate amount of fiber in the diet.

2. Eat a certain amount of vegetables and fruits every day. Eat an apple on an empty stomach in the morning and evening, or eat 1-3 bananas before each meal.

3. The staple food should not be too refined, and coarse grains should be eaten appropriately.

4. Drink a glass of light salt water or honey water on an empty stomach in the morning, and massage your abdomen or turn your waist to allow the water to vibrate in the stomach and intestines to enhance the laxative effect. You should drink plenty of cool water throughout the day to help lubricate the intestines and promote bowel movements.

5. Engage in appropriate physical activities and strengthen physical exercise, such as supine leg curls, deep squats, and cycling, which can strengthen abdominal movements, promote gastrointestinal motility, and help promote defecation.

6. Massage your abdomen every night before going to bed and develop a habit of regular bowel movements.

Baby's rough skin and goose bumps may be keratosis pilaris

If the baby's skin is rough like goose bumps, parents should pay attention. Chicken skin is keratosis pilaris, which is a skin disease related to genetics. The clinical treatment principle is to improve symptoms and avoid hair follicle infection.

Baby's rough skin and goose bumps may be white pityriasis

"Pityriasis alba" is the most common white spot disease on the skin in children, commonly known as worm spots. The cause is unknown and may be related to many factors such as nutritional deficiency, intestinal parasites, sun exposure, dry skin, etc. Pityriasis alba mostly occurs on the face, and in some children it occurs on the neck, shoulders and upper limbs. The disease usually starts in spring, worsens in summer and subsides in autumn.

The number of white spots varies, and most of them are round or oval in shape, grayish white in color, about 3 to 5 cm in diameter, with unclear boundaries with normal skin, and fine bran-like scaly desquamation on the surface. The children have no subjective symptoms or may have mild itching. If you are worried that your child has an unclean eating experience, or want to rule out intestinal parasite infection, you may wish to take your child to the hospital for a stool egg test to see if he or she needs to take anthelmintic medicine.

Baby's rough skin and goose bumps may be dermatitis

If the baby's skin is rough and you can feel small particles when you touch it, such children usually have a history of eczema on their faces when they were young. Now their skin starts to become rough at this age. It is usually considered to be atopic dermatitis, and there is usually a family history of rhinitis or allergies.

There is no good treatment method. The key is to pay attention to your diet and avoid eating allergic foods such as milk, egg yolks, etc. for a long time. Also, when using moisturizing products, you must first find the allergens. Is it caused by eating or contacting the allergens? You can recall and check it yourself, or you can go to a regular hospital to see a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, including allergen testing. If the allergens are identified, you should immediately avoid eating or contacting them.
