How to treat eczema in children effectively

Children's eczema is a relatively common skin disease, especially in the humid summer season. Children's eczema will be more serious and itchy, and children will scratch their skin. Therefore, many parents are particularly worried about children's eczema. Therefore, they want to know specifically how to treat pediatric eczema effectively. Through comprehensive understanding, they can choose a good treatment method as soon as possible to treat their children's eczema.

Keep baby's skin clean. Babies' skin is very delicate. Don't use too much force when bathing, and don't use strong soaps to avoid scratching or irritating the skin. It is best to use mild soap to remove dirt and dust from the baby's body. The bath water should not be too hot to avoid scalding the baby's skin.

Underwear should be soft. It is best to use cotton as the main clothing for babies. Underwear, bedding, etc. should not be washed with highly alkaline soaps and washing powders. Also, do not dress your baby in tight clothes or too thick clothes in summer to avoid prickly heat on the baby. Add or remove clothes for your baby appropriately according to weather changes.

Don't let your baby get too hot. You can wash with honeysuckle water or apply comfrey oil, both have no side effects. If your baby’s eczema is not severe, you don’t need to use hormones. Just pay attention to moisturizing your baby. If the condition is serious, use hormonal drugs for two days. Note that the dosage of hormonal drugs should be gradually reduced. At the same time, use Chinese medicine to consolidate the effect. Otherwise, eczema will easily recur and become more serious.

If there is an infection, you should apply some anti-inflammatory ointment. If there is no infection, some eczema ointments and lotions are very effective. This treatment is very effective for both eczema and dandruff, because dandruff itself is a type of eczema.

No matter what type of eczema it is, many parents, when they find that their children have pediatric eczema, will give their children comprehensive treatment as soon as possible, because the earlier the treatment, the better the effect. In addition, you must take good care of your child's hygiene and keep the area with eczema clean and dry.
