How to treat small red pimples on children’s faces?

Recently, I have seen many mothers asking online whether the small red bumps on their children’s faces are eczema. In fact, it is possible that it is eczema, but it also depends on the specific situation on the baby’s face. When this disease is discovered, it must be treated early to understand clearly what caused the above situation, so that you can recover your health faster.

Infant eczema is a common skin disease in infancy. It is an allergic disease, and the exact cause is sometimes difficult to find. Baby eczema is usually called "milk rash". Milk eczema lesions often occur on the face, starting from the cheeks, gradually invading the forehead, between the eyebrows, and scalp, and recurring. In severe cases, the disease may spread to the neck, shoulder blades, or even the entire body.

The lesions have various shapes, are mostly symmetrical in distribution, and can be mild or severe at times. On the face, there are initially clustered or scattered erythema and papules; on the scalp or eyebrows, there are often greasy scales and shiny yellow crusts. In mild cases, there are only light red patches with a small amount of desquamation; in severe cases, there are erythema, blisters, erosions, and infiltrations, which continue to spread and expand. If scratched, rubbed, or washed excessively, the erosion will worsen and the exudation will increase. Secondary infection often occurs due to skin damage, causing nearby lymph node enlargement, accompanied by fever, loss of appetite, dry stools, red urine and other systemic symptoms.

Once the baby shows symptoms of eczema, the mother will feel helpless, and it is even more heartbreaking to see the baby's cheeks turn red. In addition to seeking medical treatment as soon as possible, there are many eczema creams on the market that specifically treat eczema. Parents should choose carefully because eczema creams are used in different ways for different symptoms. Pay special attention to the following matters:

1) Diaper rash

Use mild water to gently wash the baby's affected area, and apply an appropriate amount of eczema cream

When you have tinea urinaria, you need to pay special attention to cleanliness.

In the case of prickly heat rash, there is a chance of recurrence even after it is cured if you sweat a lot. Therefore, you should be careful to wipe off the sweat and change your underwear frequently.

2) Heat rash, eczema, milk rash

Do not rub hard, apply the eczema cream gently, or apply a thin layer of eczema cream on gauze and then apply it on the affected area.

3) Itchy insect bites

Do not scratch. It is recommended to apply an appropriate amount of baby eczema cream as soon as possible to effectively stop the marks.

When the itching or swelling is severe, try applying eczema cream on gauze first and then apply it to the affected area.

Babies are a very vulnerable group, so no matter how minor the illness is, it will affect the whole family. The above article carefully introduces that acne on the baby's face is eczema, so if you find this situation, go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. Do not use some folk remedies for treatment without authorization, because it may not achieve the treatment effect.
