What does maculopapular rash look like in children? After reading, you should learn to judge

Many people do not know what symptoms will appear in children with maculopapular rash, so naturally they do not know how to identify it. In fact, infants and young children will have some obvious symptoms after suffering from this disease. Today I will give you a detailed introduction.

1. Papular urticaria, the skin lesions are often round or fusiform wheal-like lesions, with needle-sized to bean-sized blisters on the top, scattered or in clusters. This disease can develop to the whole body

Suggestions: It is very common in children. You can take cetirizine or loratadine orally and use elosone or calamine lotion externally.

2. Papular urticaria in children is also known as acute simple prurigo. It is more common in spring and autumn, and is more common in preschool children. It is mostly caused by bites from arthropods such as fleas, bedbugs, mites, midges, and mosquitoes. Secondly, preschool children love to eat snacks, and there are more types of snacks and regular meals, so the chance of food allergies is greater. The rash is spindle-shaped wheal groups of papules ranging in size from soybeans to peanuts, often with small papules or blisters in the center, and sometimes tense bullae can be seen. Hard papules may form after the redness and swelling subside and last for more than 1 week. After fading, pigmentation remains and does not fade for a long time.

3. The rash appears in batches on the limbs, trunk, etc., scattered or clustered, asymmetrical, and accompanied by severe itching. Scratching often leads to eczema or secondary bacterial infection. The disease is prone to recurring, and usually gradually subsides and stops around the age of 7. To prevent papular urticaria in children, we should improve environmental hygiene and living conditions, and eliminate fleas, bedbugs, midges, mosquitoes, etc. Children with the disease should avoid contact with animals such as cats and dogs.

4. Papular urticaria is a common allergic skin disease. When exposed to allergens, red patches of varying shapes and sizes will appear on unspecified parts of the body. These patches will become itchy. If contact with allergens is not stopped and treated, the rash and itching will worsen. Antibiotics are often required when there is an infection, and if you are allergic to certain foods, you should temporarily avoid eating them. Chronic infection is often the cause of chronic urticaria, but the cause of urticaria in some patients is difficult to determine or cannot be found. In addition to antihistamines, treatment can also include reserpine, aminophylline, anloxin, 6-aminocaproic acid, vitamin K, vitamin E, vitamin B12, histamine globulin, transfer factor, procaine, etc.
