How to treat eczema on baby's face

How to treat eczema on the baby's face? The baby's skin is relatively delicate, so it is prone to some skin problems. If a four-month-old baby has eczema on his face, you need to know how to eliminate eczema, pay attention to the baby's problems, and clean your baby's skin regularly. If a four-month-old baby has eczema on his face, he should go to the hospital for treatment in time. Eczema is a rather troublesome problem and requires the mother's attention.

Symptoms of eczema on a four-month-old baby's face: It starts as small red papules with exudate, and eventually scabs and desquamation. It recurs over and over again and does not heal for a long time. The baby will feel itchy and uncomfortable. It is mainly distributed on the face, forehead, eyebrows, around the auricles, and cheeks. In severe cases, it can spread to the whole body, especially in skin folds, such as the elbows and armpits. Common eczema is most severe in babies aged 2-3 months. Cause: Eczema is an allergic disease with a genetic tendency, and is more common in babies who are allergic to milk. Babies who are bottle-fed are more likely to suffer from eczema than babies who are breastfed.

Response: Generally, if the eczema is not serious, no special treatment is needed. Just make sure to keep the baby's skin clean. Do not use soap or bath gel to wash the baby's face or bathe the baby. Just use clean water to wash it. 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. If the baby's eczema is severe, parents can apply boric acid water compress. Babies with eczema may be allergic to certain foods when they grow up, such as fish, shrimp, etc. Parents should pay close attention.

Don't let your baby get too hot. You can wash with honeysuckle water or apply comfrey oil, both have no side effects. If your baby’s eczema is not severe, you don’t need to use hormones. Just pay attention to moisturizing your baby. If the condition is serious, use hormonal drugs for two days. Note that the dosage of hormonal drugs should be gradually reduced. At the same time, use Chinese medicine to consolidate the effect. Otherwise, eczema will easily recur and become more serious. Udrol (a weak hormone drug), Geranium Ointment (a Chinese medicine without hormones), Calamine Lotion (mainly used for drying out, suitable for eczema with bleeding), Bactroban (used to prevent skin infections when the skin is bleeding), Eninda (more expensive, used for baby eczema, without hormones), Avène Triple Repair Cream (mainly for moisturizing). These are all used by our baby and have a certain effect. However, our baby's eczema is too severe and keeps recurring. Now that the baby is older, his resistance is probably stronger and the eczema on his face has improved a lot.

If a four-month-old baby has eczema on his face, you should pay attention to timely treatment and do not let your baby get hurt. If treated in time, the baby can recover as soon as possible. If a four-month-old baby has eczema on his face, the treatment must be thorough and no sequelae should be left. This will be very harmful to your baby, so you must be very careful.
