What to do if baby has small red bumps on his back

When babies first come into this world, they need to adapt to every aspect. If the environment is not suitable, it is easy to cause skin diseases. If your baby has small red bumps on his back, it is likely eczema, which is a very common skin disease in infancy. If the baby has eczema, the mother will definitely be very anxious. The baby's eczema is generally caused by the environment and diet. We should pay more attention and observe carefully in daily care. How to treat baby eczema?

After getting baby eczema, the following treatment measures should be taken:

1. The general treatment principle is: find out the cause, treat the symptoms, feed properly, and provide careful care.

Generally speaking, we should first observe whether there is any food allergy, especially allergy to animal protein such as milk, breast milk or egg white; secondly, if the mother eats fish, shrimp, crab, chicken, etc., it can also be passed on to the baby through breast milk. After eating these animal foods, we should observe whether the baby's skin disease worsens. If it is related to the above situation, the baby should change the feeding method; if it is allergic to breast milk, use milk instead, if it is allergic to milk, use breast milk instead, or the mother should not eat fish, shrimp, crab and other foods during breastfeeding. At the same time, timely treatment should be given to the baby's indigestion, constipation and diarrhea.

2. Common internal medicines include diphenhydramine syrup, vitamin B complex, vitamin C, etc. Antibiotics should be added when there is secondary infection.

3. The topical medication depends on the state of skin lesions. When there is water erosion or redness and swelling, use 2% boric acid aqueous solution or 0.1 radon aqueous solution for wet compress. After the exudate and erosion disappear, use topical corticosteroid hormone preparations, such as eczema cream, dehumidifying oil, skin relaxing cream, etc.

Here are some things to keep in mind when caring for a baby with eczema:

1. Avoid contact of irritating substances with the skin, do not wash the affected area with alkaline soap, do not wash the affected area with overly hot water, and do not apply cosmetics or any oils.

2. The room temperature should not be too high, otherwise it will make the eczema itching worse. Wear loose clothes, preferably pure cotton fabrics.

3. Breastfeeding can prevent eczema caused by allergy to foreign proteins caused by milk feeding.

4. During the period of infantile eczema, do not vaccinate against smallpox (smallpox has disappeared and vaccination is no longer needed), and do not contact people with herpes simplex to avoid herpes.
