What to do if children have rough skin

Children's bodies are very fragile because their immunity and other defenses have not been fully established. This creates a natural opportunity for the invasion of diseases, leaving children's bodies in a state of disease attack for a long time. Skin problems are considered to have a relatively minor impact among children's diseases, but their harm cannot be ignored. So, what should we do if children have rough skin? Let me give you a brief explanation below.

1. Skin cleansing: The first step in skin care is cleansing, and baby's skin is no exception. The climate is cold in winter, and babies are obviously not as active as in summer, and their sweat and sebum secretions are not as vigorous. Generally, it is enough to wash the baby's face once or twice a day. Unless the baby is particularly active and sweats a lot, special cleaning is required. Under normal circumstances, it is more appropriate to bathe the baby once or twice a week. Generally, warm water should be used to wash the baby's hands and face. The water temperature should not be too high. It can be warm when the mother feels it with her hands. If the baby's hands and face are found to be particularly dirty, some cleaning products can be used. It is not good to wash your baby's face and bathe too frequently, especially for babies after 3 months old. Due to the decrease in hormone levels in their bodies, frequent washing will wash away the protective sebum, which can easily cause dry skin, and then symptoms of redness and itching.

2. How to choose baby cleansing products: When choosing cleansing products for your baby, just stick to the principle of "simple". Generally speaking, the fewer functions other than cleaning, the better. Try not to choose cleansing products with sterilization functions to avoid irritating the baby's delicate skin or causing unnecessary allergies.

3. Moisturizing: After washing your baby’s face with clean water, dry it with a soft towel in time. Sometimes when your baby spits up or drools, you should wipe him/her dry immediately with a clean, soft towel. When wiping, be careful not to use too much force. Press gently with a towel to absorb the moisture.

The above is an explanation of what to do if children have rough skin. Skin diseases are just as harmful to children as to adults. Therefore, parents must provide children with a safe environment for growth and development. Children must not be allowed to stay in heavily polluted areas for a long time to prevent them from contracting skin diseases due to environmental problems.
