Many times due to weather changes, many children develop eczema. The baby's skin is relatively tender and the child's immunity is low, which can easily cause eczema. In life, parents use seafood and other items in their children's diet, which may cause eczema. So what are the best treatments for eczema on the baby's face? Babies' skin should be white, smooth and delicate, but some babies' skin is rough, flaky, or even broken and oozing. Especially in a hot and humid environment, the skin becomes red and itchy, which is medically called "atopic dermatitis" or "allergic dermatitis", and is commonly known as "eczema" and "milk ringworm" among the people. Generally, eczema appears as patches of red, dense, rough, scaly skin. When the symptoms are mild, it is usually light red or pink, and when the symptoms are severe, it is dark red. It is usually very itchy. Some babies have eczema in the external auditory canal and often scratch their ears with their hands because of the itch. After scratching, there are scratches and liquid oozing out. The cheeks and forehead are the most common areas for eczema. However, the areas where eczema often occurs vary depending on the baby's age. For babies under 1 year old, eczema is everywhere. It will occur all over the body. The shoulders, arms, chest, etc. are its favorite places to stay. For babies aged 1 to 2 years, the most typical places for eczema to appear are the bends of the elbows and behind the knees. Because the baby's skin is not fully developed, the stratum corneum of the outermost layer of the epidermis is very thin, the capillary network is rich, and the endothelium is rich in water and chloride, making allergic reactions very likely to occur. Eczema tends to recur. For some patients, as time goes by and the baby becomes stronger day by day, the eczema disappears unknowingly. Generally, eczema will heal itself after the age of 2. Reason 1: Genetic factors Eczema has a lot to do with genetics. If one of the parents has a history of allergic diseases or has had eczema, there is a high chance that the baby will develop eczema. Tips from experienced mothers: Investigate your own and your husband’s medical history. If you are allergic to certain foods or environmental factors, try to avoid exposing your baby to substances that may cause allergies. Reason 2: Milk Milk (including milk formula) contains a large amount of foreign protein, which can easily cause allergies and is the culprit for baby eczema. Tips from experienced mothers: Eczema may be relieved by simply stopping drinking milk or the original formula and trying another formula. If you want to add dairy products to babies over 2 years old who are allergic to milk, you can try yogurt, which contains more calcium than milk and is very easy to digest and absorb. If you still want your baby to drink milk, you can cook it for a while longer. Add less sugar, or add 1/3 of the total amount of rice soup to the milk. Reason three: Other foods such as eggs, fish, shrimp, crab, chocolate, and fructose may cause allergies In the above article, we learned the best treatment for eczema on the baby's face. The first thing we should pay attention to in life is to check the child's body. We should also pay attention to the diet to prevent the occurrence of eczema due to improper diet. |
