What to do if your child has dry and itchy skin

Dry and itchy skin is something we experience in normal times. It is also a particularly uncomfortable condition and there are many reasons for it. It is not only related to the climate, but also has a direct connection with the physical condition. Especially for babies, we must pay attention to such situations and actively regulate them. Let’s learn about what to do if children have dry and itchy skin?

1. Insist on bathing your baby every day. When bathing, use a special baby shower gel. If the baby's skin is dry or peeling, you can also inject a few drops of baby moisturizing oil into the bathtub. After washing, apply moisturizer all over the body. Mothers can use weakly acidic, mild and non-irritating products.

2. Choose pure cotton clothes for your baby. Pure cotton clothes are more breathable and also help absorb sweat.

3. Don’t wear too much. Although the weather is getting cooler in early autumn, you cannot dress your baby in too many clothes at once, otherwise the baby will sweat easily and develop prickly heat.

4. Prevent mosquito bites. Mosquito bites can easily cause infection, especially in dry climates, and the bites are prone to breaking.

Also, give your baby plenty of water

Mothers can stipulate how much water the baby drinks a day, and feed the baby at regular intervals or remind the baby to drink water on his own. In autumn, babies generally need 5-8 glasses of water every day. Let your baby eat more fruits that are rich in water. Pears, apples, and watermelons are all good choices. You can also squeeze the fruit into juice for your baby to drink.

Through the above introduction, we now know what to do if children have dry and itchy skin. This is also a method of conditioning in life. At the same time, we must also pay attention to the care of the baby's skin, especially pay attention to eating more vitamins that are good for the baby's skin in the daily diet. Also, pay attention to the baby's movement as much as possible.
