What to do if your baby has eczema around his mouth

Every baby is the apple of his parents' eyes, and no parent wants to see their baby suffer from disease. When parents see their baby crying with eczema around the mouth, they will definitely feel worried and anxious, and try every possible way to help the baby alleviate the condition. Now let me tell you parents how to treat eczema around your baby’s mouth. I hope it can help your baby.

Generally, if eczema is not serious, no special treatment is needed. You can apply pediatric dehumidifying ointment or Ning Shuang to the child to improve the condition. These medicines do not contain hormones and will not harm the child's skin, so they are very safe. Just pay attention to keeping your baby's skin clean, do not use soap, bath gel, etc. to wash your baby's face or bathe your baby, just use clean water. After the baby is 4 months old, start to gradually add complementary foods to the baby and reduce the intake of milk. Until the baby is completely weaned off milk as the staple food and replaced it with rice, skin eczema will often heal itself without treatment. In terms of medication, parents can let their babies take oral anti-allergic drugs such as chlorpheniramine, vitamin C, etc. under the guidance of a doctor, and at the same time supplement their babies with some calcium supplements.

For more severe eczema, first observe whether there is any food allergy, especially allergy to animal protein such as milk, breast milk or egg white; secondly, whether the mother eats fish, shrimp or

, crabs, chickens, etc. can also be passed to babies through breast milk. After eating these animal foods, the baby's skin disease should be observed to see if it worsens. If it is related to the above situation, the baby should change the feeding method; such as breast milk allergy, use milk instead, milk allergy should be replaced with breast milk, or the mother should not eat fish, shrimp, crabs and other foods during breastfeeding. At the same time, the baby's indigestion, constipation and diarrhea should be treated in time.

Babies' skin is relatively tender and has poor resistance, so the area should be kept clean to avoid infection. When there is exudation and scabs, do not scrub with hot water or soap to avoid increasing exudate and thicker scabs. Instead, gently apply vegetable oil and do not peel off the scabs forcibly.

For children who are prone to eczema, do not dress them in too many clothes, and it is best to wear cotton clothes. Do not overheat the water when bathing and do not use soap. Your baby has an allergic constitution. It is recommended that you supplement him with multiple vitamins in appropriate amounts. You can also do a blood test to detect any trace element deficiency and provide symptomatic treatment.

I believe that all parents who love their babies will understand how to treat their baby’s eczema after seeing the above methods, but if the eczema is very serious, you must go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. In addition, in daily life, parents should pay attention to the baby's personal hygiene. As long as the baby is in a good and clean environment, the baby will stay away from diseases.
