Why does my child always itch?

Many mothers will certainly find that their children often have some itchy conditions, but because the children are still relatively young and can't explain why they itch, mothers will be particularly worried. Why do children feel itchy? Most of the reasons are due to not paying attention to skin care, and the child's skin is relatively delicate. Let me introduce to you what to do!

Take a bath frequently, once a day in June, twice a day in the dog days of summer, and once every two days in autumn and winter. The water temperature for bathing should not be too high. It can be slightly cooler in summer, but not more than 39 degrees. You don’t have to use shower gel every time you take a bath. Under one year old, use it once a week. Now he is one and a half years old, and I only use it when he gets naughty and dirty outside. No more than three times a week.

In the dry season, use moisturizer after each bath. If the swimming or bathing water is too hot or the soaking time is too long, use moisturizer in time. During the itchy skin period, apply moisturizer several times a day.

Avoid prolonged sun exposure between 12:00 and 15:00 in all seasons. In summer, only do outdoor activities in the morning and evening. If you spend too much time outdoors, you can wear ultra-thin long-sleeved shirts and long pants, a hat, and use children's sunscreen.

It is best to use pure cotton for your baby's independent crib, special bedding, and underwear. It is best to hand wash the underwear. If it is just urine, do not use detergent, just wash with clean water. Use mosquito nets in the summer and don’t let children wear too many clothes, just like adults. They should wear one less piece of clothing than the elderly to reduce sweat irritation and avoid prickly heat. It is not recommended to apply prickly heat powder to children every day. If it is eczema, take medication as prescribed by your doctor and use moisturizer frequently at the same time. In addition to controlling the temperature of the bath water, the simplest, practical and safest way is to apply silicone cream when it seems dry, follow the doctor's advice, and persist for 1 month.

In addition, you should also pay attention to the clothes your children wear on a daily basis. Not only should they be washed regularly, but it is also best to expose them to the sun to kill the bacteria. Change your children's clothes regularly and wear relatively loose and comfortable cotton clothes. This is more hygienic, less likely to cause bacteria to multiply, and more breathable.
