How to treat baby's prickly heat

Babies often get prickly heat in the summer, which often leaves mothers helpless and anxious. Some mothers even think of using prickly heat powder to treat their children's prickly heat. However, the child's skin is very tender and cannot withstand the medicinal effect of prickly heat powder, which will hurt the baby's skin. Therefore, we must learn to prevent it: pay attention to skin hygiene, take a bath frequently, and change clothes frequently. Now let's take a look at how to treat baby's prickly heat.

1. After eating watermelon, wipe the affected area with the rind. Wipe until it turns slightly red. Wipe two or three times a day. The effect will be seen on the second day (no more itching), and a scab will form after two days.

2. Mash the bitter gourd to extract the juice, apply it to the affected area, and the prickly heat will disappear the next day. The old Chinese doctor will choose a ripe bitter gourd, take out some of the pulp, and pour in 50 grams of the traditional Chinese medicine borax. When the borax dissolves, water will flow out. Use this water to apply to the affected area, and the therapeutic effect is excellent.

3. There are three kinds of beans, namely mung beans, red beans and black beans. These three kinds of beans look good when put together. If they are boiled into soup, Chinese medicine calls it "three-bean soup". If you start taking it in summer, children will rarely get prickly heat. Specific preparation method: use 10 grams each of mung bean, red bean and black bean, add 600 ml of water, simmer on low heat until 300 ml is reduced, drink it with the beans and soup, it is suitable for regular consumption. If you add 20 grams of coix seed to the soup, the effect will be better.

4. Mint can green the environment and provide a place for people to enjoy. Because it contains volatile oils, the main components of which are menthol, menthone and menthyl acetate, it is also effective in preventing and treating prickly heat. Mint bath is mainly used in clinical practice. The recipe uses 150 grams of fresh mint, boiled in water for bathing, suitable for both young and old.

5. In summer, a kind of lush mugwort can be seen everywhere by the rivers and on the hillsides. Rinse the dust and dirt on the leaves, add a large amount of water and boil them for half an hour, then use the boiled water to bathe the children. It can not only prevent and treat prickly heat, but also prevent the occurrence of other summer skin diseases and play a role in moisturizing and beautifying the skin.

Now that we know so many ways to treat baby's prickly heat, we will no longer have any questions about how to treat baby's prickly heat.
