What are the small red bumps on the baby's face?

Many babies have small red bumps on their chin, which always makes young parents worry, thinking that their baby has some disease. In fact, this phenomenon is quite common and not as serious as everyone imagines. So what are the reasons for the small red pimples on the baby’s face? Let’s take a look at the following content to find out.

1. Baby skin allergies

Skin allergy is one of the most common reasons for small red pimples on babies’ faces. As long as the allergens are eliminated, the small red pimples will disappear naturally. For example, my baby also had small red bumps on his face some time ago. Later, I thought it was probably because the snake plant in the backyard bloomed a few days ago. I took my baby there to play, and because of the pollen allergy, I cut off the flowers of the snake plant. After two days, the baby's small red bumps were completely healed. For baby's skin allergies, I suggest that it is best not to use anti-allergic drugs. The purpose can be achieved as long as the allergens are found and eliminated. Frequent use of medications is not good for babies. As long as the baby is well protected and the skin is kept clean and dry, there will generally be no problems.

2. Heat rash on the face

Heat rash is the most common reason for babies. It usually occurs in summer. Heat rash does not necessarily grow only on the body, but sometimes on the face. Young mothers are often anxious but at a loss. They have tried many methods but have not achieved any results. The way to distinguish is to see if the baby also has small red bumps on his neck or back, and whether he scratches. If the baby has small red bumps on his face in summer and has the above conditions, it is definitely heat rash. It is recommended to use the following methods to eliminate it:

Wear

Change your baby's clothes to pure cotton, and make them as loose, thin and soft as possible. This can reduce the irritation to the baby's skin and is very breathable. One thing to add here is that some parents like to let their babies be naked in the summer, which is actually very wrong. Although it looks cool and comfortable, it is easy to be stimulated by the adverse external environment and is also prone to heat rash.

diet

At this time, babies should eat less or no pungent food, even a little bit, because babies are very sensitive, even if you think it is just a little spicy. Eat more light soups, for example: mung bean soup, three-bean soup (mung bean, red bean, black bean, these three beans are cooked together and drink both the beans and the soup). These soups can not only replenish water and relieve heat, but also supplement vitamins.

3. Neonatal eczema

The symptoms of neonatal eczema are very similar to those of prickly heat, except that prickly heat is more likely to occur in the summer. The small red bumps on the baby's face will be very itchy, and the baby will often scratch them with his hands or rub his face against you, so as a parent you should always pay attention to your baby's body movements. After confirming that it is neonatal eczema, the most important thing is to care for the baby and bring the baby to a cool and clean room to observe the baby's reaction. Try not to use medication to relieve itching and see if the situation will be relieved. If the baby is still uncomfortable in a comfortable and cool environment, crying and making a fuss, you can consider eczema medication or go to the hospital for treatment.
