My baby has a lot of red bumps on his body, what's going on?

After having a baby, the mother's energy is all on the baby. His every move and any physical changes will affect the parents' hearts. What's going on with the baby's many red bumps? Generally, mothers find it difficult to judge what the red bumps are and feel anxious, worrying that something may go wrong with the baby. If the baby can't speak, they are even more worried. So I list several causes of red bumps for you.

It may generally be milk rash. Babies will usually get it, so don't worry. If the mother is breastfeeding, the baby should not eat seafood or river food for the time being. The baby's clothes should be breathable and a little thin. It will be more difficult to heal if covered up. You can apply some breast milk, or buy some comfrey, soak it in sesame oil, and wait until the sesame oil turns purple, then you can apply a little on it.

This situation may be eczema or allergy. If it is eczema, you can generally consider applying paeonol ointment or Baibao cream for treatment. Remember to take frequent baths and keep your skin clean. If you are allergic, you can take oral anti-allergic drugs such as chlorpheniramine, vitamin C, etc., and give your baby some calcium supplements. When treating some skin diseases such as eczema, you must choose the medicine reasonably. It is best not to use external ointments because many of them contain hormones. Hormone treatment can only suppress and cannot cure the root cause.

It may be herpes caused by viral infection. I suggest you try acyclovir ointment or phthalide. If there are blisters, please note that it may also be an allergy.

It is recommended that you use a sterile cotton swab with iodine to disinfect it, then use a sterile syringe to puncture the blister and then apply phthalidone again. The effect will be better. You can also take oral antiviral drugs at the same time.

For eczema, try to find the cause and eliminate it, pay attention to adjusting your diet, avoid spicy food, avoid eating items that are easy to cause allergies, such as alcohol, seafood and shellfish. It is better to eat a light diet;

Try to reduce adverse external stimulation, such as scratching, external soap, hot water washing, etc.; clothing should be loose, light and soft, and avoid wearing wool or nylon fabrics. Try rubbing zinc ointment on the affected area.

Based on the above analysis, have you found the cause of your baby's illness? See if it is caused by moisture or one of the above. If you are not sure, it is safer to go to the hospital for a check-up. After all, if the baby is very small, it will be difficult to treat if the disease is delayed. Cooperate with the doctor's treatment and pay attention to spicy food in your diet. If you are breastfeeding, you should also avoid it. I wish your baby grows up healthily!
