Why is my baby allergic to ultraviolet rays?

Due to genetic reasons, some babies have allergic constitutions. As their bodies gradually develop and mature, their immunity increases and their ability to fight allergies will greatly improve. But what is the reason for babies' allergy to ultraviolet rays?

Many mothers are worried about their babies being exposed to direct sunlight because they are afraid of causing ultraviolet allergies. In fact, there are many causes of UV allergy. Sunlight is the direct cause, and there are many other causes.

1. Sunlight exposure. If you are exposed to sunlight for a long time without taking any protective measures, your facial skin will easily turn red and become allergic.

2. Caused by food allergy. Eating too much food containing photosensitive substances and then exposing yourself to the sun can also cause ultraviolet allergy. Common photosensitive plants include celery, rapeseed, amaranth, Chinese cabbage, mustard, fig, lemon, white radish, coriander, leek, etc.

3. Allergies caused by using cosmetics. Skin allergies are often caused by the use of cosmetics and skin care products that are not suitable for your skin. For example, inferior, spoiled, and highly irritating cosmetics can cause skin allergies.

4. Seasonal changes. The temperature fluctuates between hot and cold, causing redness and heat on the faces of sensitive people.

5. Pollen and dust. Facial skin allergies are related to many reasons. Skin allergies in spring are largely related to pollen allergies. Dust allergy is an allergic reaction to microorganisms that live in dust and is the most common allergy. Cotton fibers, fur and various fibers can easily cause skin allergies.

6. Age increase. As we age, our skin tends to become more sensitive. This is because there is a weakly acidic sebum film on the surface of young and healthy skin, which retains moisture and protects the skin from external damage. As we age, the protective film is not as strong as before, thus leading to allergies.

In addition to the above reasons, facial skin allergies are also related to long-term use of contraceptive drugs. People who are allergic to seafood, mangoes, and nuts will also experience allergic symptoms after eating these foods.
