What should I do if I have foreskin eczema in children?

Newborn babies have tender skin, so they are prone to eczema. When eczema occurs, many new mothers will be at a loss. However, if a baby has eczema, untimely care will greatly affect the baby's health, and the baby will feel very uncomfortable at this stage. So how should babies with eczema be cared for?

So how to take care of your baby if he has eczema?

One is in terms of diet. During the period when the baby has eczema, new mothers should pay attention to whether the baby has allergic reactions to foods such as milk, eggs, shrimp, etc., and avoid giving the baby these foods that may cause allergies. If the baby is breastfed, the new mother should avoid eating spicy and irritating foods and reduce the intake of high-fat foods during the period when the baby has eczema. Be sure to insist on breastfeeding. Breast milk can improve the baby's resistance and can also add appropriate complementary foods to the baby.

It is also necessary to reduce the baby's absorption of dust and avoid contact with cats, dogs and other animals.

Third, in terms of clothing. During the period when the baby has eczema, it is best to choose clothes for the baby made of natural cotton materials.

Avoid letting the baby wear wool or chemical fiber clothes close to the body, which will make the baby's skin feel itchy and then scratch it. Clothes should also be washed regularly, and then in sunny weather, you can put your baby's clothes in the sun to effectively kill bacteria.

Therefore, when the mother is caring for the child, she must change the child's clothes frequently to prevent some infections. If the child has eczema, you cannot use medication at will. The editor recommends that you use medication under the guidance of a doctor.
