What should I do if my three-month-old baby has ringworm on his face?

Some babies develop ringworm on their skin, so they need to pay attention to timely treatment to avoid the ringworm from worsening and causing it to appear in other parts of the body. In particular, they need to pay attention to preventing worsening conditions, especially when ringworm grows on the baby's face. They need to pay attention to choosing treatment methods. So, what should I do if a three-month-old baby has ringworm on his face? Let me introduce this issue to you below. It is also called tinea foetida or milk tinea. It often occurs in children from shortly after birth to two years old. Eczema is common on the head, face, neck, back and limbs. At the beginning, it is red papules or macules the size of rice grains, which gradually increase in number and are accompanied by small blisters. After the small blisters rupture, yellow-white serous fluid oozes out and the local skin becomes flushed. The patient may feel itchy, which may be intermittent or paroxysmal and often worsen in warm environments at night, affecting sleep.

Nowadays, people have a deeper understanding of childhood eczema. Modern medical scientists believe that the occurrence of eczema in children is closely related to the child's physique. People with this constitution are called congenital allergic constitution, and most of them are passed down from their parents. In addition to the child's physique, the child's feeding is also an important factor. Generally speaking, children who are breastfed are less likely to develop eczema, while children who drink milk or milk powder are more likely to develop eczema. Children’s clothing is also closely related to eczema. It is better to wear cotton clothes for children. Chemical fiber and fur products are more likely to cause eczema.

If the above problems occur, you can take corresponding treatments to ensure health and avoid the problem of ringworm causing other parts of the body to occur, especially to avoid the disease from worsening and putting the baby in danger.
