What to do if your child has red spots on his face

It is a common problem for children to have red spots on their faces. In fact, it is eczema on the child’s face. There are many reasons for eczema on a child’s face, such as not paying attention to the child’s diet, leading to allergies, or it is caused by factors such as the child’s living environment. So what should we do if a child has red spots on his face? Let’s take a look at the detailed explanation below.

Allergic eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is an itchy, inflammatory condition of the skin that tends to come and go. Eczema is usually the first symptom of allergies in babies and is not contagious through contact. The skin of babies with allergic eczema becomes very itchy and inflamed, causing redness, swelling, cracking, oozing, scabbing and peeling. Between flare-ups, the skin may appear normal, or it may become affected by chronic eczema, with dryness, thickening, and itching in the affected areas. Here I would like to introduce three Chinese medicine treatments to you.

When small red spots appear on the child's face, parents must be careful not to be too nervous. They should pay attention to the child's diet to see if there is anything inappropriate and make timely adjustments for the child. They should also pay attention to the situation where the child's eczema does not subside. They should take the child to the hospital for examination and treatment in time, and do not let the child eat fishy and spicy food.
