The reason why a two-year-old baby has small red spots on his face

Parents whose babies have delicate skin may find that there are always some spots on their children’s faces, which look like fat particles, or because they are itchy and they always scratch. In the following article, we will introduce to you, what are the small red spots on the face of a two-year-old baby? What should we do?

Symptoms of eczema: It starts as small red papules with exudate, and eventually scabs and desquamation may form. It will recur over and over again and if it 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. The proportion of formula-fed babies suffering from eczema is higher than that of breastfed babies. How to deal with it: Generally, if the eczema is not serious, no special treatment is required. Just pay attention to keeping the baby's skin clean. Do not use soap or bath gel to wash the baby's face or bathe, 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.

Above we learned about a two-year-old baby having small red spots on his face? This phenomenon is because the child is too young and his skin is relatively tender, resulting in skin allergies. Parents and friends, please take good care of your children's skin.
