Babies are more prone to prickly heat. The main reasons are that their sweat glands are still immature and their metabolism is fast. If they wear stuffy clothes and sweat a lot at this time, the sweat glands will easily be blocked, leading to prickly heat, which is also a type of heat rash. Prickly heat is a needle-sized red rash that feels itchy and often appears on the baby's forehead, neck, back and other areas prone to sweating.

In a hot and stuffy environment, avoid dressing your baby too many clothes, and remember to change your baby's clothes frequently even if he sweats. If the symptoms are mild, keep the baby's body dry, so that the rash on the baby's body will naturally subside, or you can use a small amount of prickly heat powder or prickly heat water; if the symptoms are severe, use prickly heat water to relieve the symptoms.

To prevent prickly heat, you must first keep your baby's skin clean and dry, so be sure to bathe your baby frequently, 2-3 times a day when the weather is hot.

You can add a few drops of baby gold water or floral water, Huoxiang Zhengqi water, Ten Drops of Water, etc. into the bath water, or boil water with purslane to bathe your baby, which can prevent prickly heat.

To keep the skin dry after taking a bath, you can apply heat-repellent powder, pine pollen, rose powder, etc. to your baby, but not too much, because too much powder can easily clog the pores and be harmful. Also be careful not to let your baby inhale too much powder. Use with caution in babies with allergies.
