Baby eczema usually occurs on the baby's face, neck, forehead, or even on the scalp, especially behind the ears, and sometimes on the buttocks. They are usually small red bumps, some with a little white on them, which look a bit like acne and are very itchy. Sometimes they are scattered on the baby's skin, and sometimes they appear in patches. Some newborns may also have fever symptoms, but generally rare. Generally, the symptoms of baby eczema do not appear all at once. One or two symptoms may appear at first, and then subside and appear again. There may be a few spots at first and then gradually more. Some newborns may even have eczema so severe that pus will be oozing out.

Nursing

1. Keep the skin clean and dry. When bathing your baby, use warm water and non-alkaline bath agent to clean the baby's body. For babies with intertrigo, special attention should be paid to cleaning the folds of the skin. When taking a bath, the shower gel must be rinsed off. After washing, wipe the moisture off the baby's body and apply a non-oily moisturizer to avoid hindering the normal breathing of the skin. The baby's hair should also be washed every day. If the baby has seborrheic dermatitis, washing the head carefully can remove the scabs. If the scab has hardened and stuck to the head, apply olive oil on the affected area and then wash it after a while. After washing, you can apply some pediatric dehumidifying ointment.

2. Avoid external stimulation. Parents should always pay attention to changes in temperature and humidity around the baby. Babies with contact dermatitis should especially avoid exposing their skin to cold wind or strong sunlight. In summer, after your baby sweats during exercise, you should wipe off his sweat carefully; when the weather is cold and dry, you should apply anti-allergic non-oily moisturizer to your baby. In addition to paying attention to weather changes, parents should not let their babies wear clothes that are easy to irritate the skin, such as wool, silk, nylon, etc.

3. Trim the nails short. If your baby suffers from severely itchy atopic dermatitis or contact dermatitis, parents should trim their baby's nails regularly to reduce the chance of scratching.
