Why is there redness around the child's lips?

Some children have abnormal physical phenomena, so parents need to pay attention to timely discovery, so as to ensure the health of the children and avoid dangerous situations that affect the health of the children. So why is the area around the child's lips red? Let me introduce this issue to you below.

The red area around the human lips is called the "vermilion border". Its moisture is maintained by the local abundant capillaries and a small number of underdeveloped sebaceous glands. Due to the low humidity and strong winds in autumn, the blood circulation of human skin and mucous membranes is poor. If you eat less fresh vegetables, the body's intake of vitamin B2 and vitamin A will be insufficient, and the skin and mucous membranes will become dry and cracked. Some people like to lick their lips with their tongue to moisten them. In fact, this is a bad habit, because licking the lips can only bring temporary moisture. When the moisture on the lips evaporates, it will take away more moisture from inside the lips, causing your lips to fall into a vicious cycle of "dry - lick - drier - lick again". As a result, the more you lick, the more painful it becomes, and the more cracked your lips become. Besides, saliva contains amylase and other substances. When the wind blows, the water evaporates.

1. Dry skin

Because the baby's skin is delicate, if the baby stays in an environment with too low humidity for a long time, the skin will easily become dry or even chapped, and the baby's hair will become dry and dull or fall off.

2. Mouth and tongue ulcers

The child refuses to eat, is irritable, and even unwilling to drink water, and complains of oral pain; there is fever at the onset of the disease, most of which are high fevers. Single or clustered small blisters can be seen in the mouth, surrounded by red halos, which are prone to form ulcers after breaking and are covered with yellow-white cellulose secretions. Herpes and erosions or ulcers of varying sizes can be seen on the lips, tongue and buccal mucosa.

3. Increased eye mucus

The baby's eye secretions increase, especially in the morning when getting up, eye mucus can be seen in the corners of the eyes, and if there is too much, it will stick to the eyelids.

4. Diarrhea

The baby's digestive system is relatively delicate. Once it gets hot, it is easy to have symptoms such as abdominal bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, sour and smelly stools, and redness of the anus.

5. Dry and hard stool

Some babies will suffer from constipation after getting a fever, and cry when defecating because of the pain in their anus caused by the irritation of dry feces. (Editor: Li Li)
