How to care for allergic rash in children?

Children have fragile bodies, poor immunity, and delicate skin, so they are easily invaded by some diseases, especially rashes caused by allergies. At this time, family members must be aware of it in time and find ways to give their children the right treatment measures to avoid threats and troubles to their bodies. So how to care for allergic rashes in young children?

1: Keep your baby's hands clean and cut his nails frequently.

2: Avoid scratching to prevent infection. Eczema is very painful and itchy. Babies often scratch themselves, which can cause bacterial infection of the skin.

3: Do not use soap or hot water to wash the affected skin. Because soap and hot water will wash away the oil on the skin surface, making the skin drier and irritating the skin, you can add catechu children's bath product to the water and scrub your baby's body.

4: If you suspect that the cause is food, ask your doctor to provide a healthy diet that is nutritious and unlikely to cause eczema. Do not arbitrarily prohibit your child from eating. The body reacts differently to the same food at different times. Arbitrarily prohibiting your baby from eating a variety of foods will lead to nutritional imbalance in the baby. If the eczema is not very serious, do not change your child's diet without a doctor's advice.

5: Reduce the time and frequency of bathing. Take a bath no more than 3 times a week, and the time should not exceed 5 minutes. The water temperature for bathing should not be too high. It is better to bathe with warm water at 36-38℃. It is recommended to bathe once a day. Do not use alkaline bath gel and soap.

6: Don't let your children swim in chlorinated swimming pools or salt water (sea water).

7: Dress your baby in loose cotton clothes to avoid friction from clothing that may aggravate eczema.

8: If your baby develops a rash on his skin, be sure to take him to the hospital and ask a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Never apply any medicine to your baby at will.

9: For babies who are allergic to eggs, if the eczema is not very serious, you can try to remove the egg white and eat only the egg yolk, as the egg white can easily cause allergic reactions.

10: Postpone vaccination during the acute phase of eczema, and avoid contact with children suffering from herpes simplex.

I believe everyone knows how to care for allergic rashes in young children. You must be extra careful when red spots or papules appear on the baby's skin, especially skin problems caused by viral infections. You must not take it lightly. Only by paying attention to the baby's cleanliness and hygiene, bathing more often, eating a healthy diet, and keeping the air fresh can you avoid harm.
