What are the symptoms of candidiasis in children?

Many children will suffer from pediatric rosary dermatitis. Generally, there are obvious symptoms when they have this dermatitis, but parents who do not understand this disease may ignore it. This is very dangerous for your child, because the child's skin is relatively tender. If you do not discover and treat it in time, it may cause skin problems, which is not good for your child's health.

Candida is actually quite common. It can be said that it is everywhere, widely present in living rooms, on human skin, in feces, etc. It is one of the "common groups".

Under normal circumstances, Candida albicans does not "do evil" everywhere, but if the body's resistance is reduced or in a humid environment, Candida albicans will multiply in large numbers, resulting in a series of symptoms. Infants and young children have poor skin defenses and are more likely to develop Candida 1 and 2 dermatitis in areas such as the buttocks, back, or armpits where diapers are worn.

Especially the buttocks and groin areas, because of the immersion of urine and feces, sweat is extremely difficult to evaporate, and children often scratch, the symptoms of candidiasis dermatitis are more obvious, with skin flushing and swelling. Generally speaking, this type of dermatitis is painless, but some cases are contagious between people.

The rash of candidal dermatitis is mostly characterized by local skin redness, mild swelling, surface erosion, and secretions with a foul odor. Sometimes it may also be dry and scaly. Candida dermatitis often occurs in skin folds such as the groin, perianal and gluteal fissures, armpits, nail grooves and corners of the mouth.

Candidal dermatitis in children often affects the skin of the trunk and neck, presenting as widespread, dense, red maculopapular rashes that look like prickly heat. It may invade the oral or vulvar mucosa at the same time, often with a cheesy pseudomembrane-like discharge.

In short, pediatric candidiasis definitely has obvious symptoms, so you must pay attention to it during the normal period of childbirth, so that you can detect your child's physical discomfort in time, which is also very beneficial for regulating his body, and it can also make your child get better faster. I believe you will feel very relieved.
