Eczema is a skin disease that mainly relies on medication and daily care for treatment. However, when using medication for treatment, it is also necessary to take appropriate medications for the patient based on the patient's specific condition. For example, when a baby has eczema problems, adult medications cannot be used, but safer children's medications must be used. So, how should we use medicine and care for baby eczema? 1. What is neonatal eczema Neonatal eczema is a common skin disease in the neonatal period. It is an allergic disease, and the exact cause is sometimes difficult to find. Neonatal eczema is usually called "milk ringworm". If drugs for treating "ringworm" are used to treat neonatal eczema, the condition will worsen. Neonatal eczema is an allergic reaction of a hereditary allergic constitution to certain factors in the environment. The exact cause is still unclear, but it is currently believed to be related to both genetic and immune abnormalities. This type of newborn often has other allergic diseases, such as allergic rhinitis, asthmatic bronchitis, urticaria and other diseases. 2. What medicine is good for neonatal eczema? For babies whose eczema is not serious, only local medication is needed. You can apply external ointments directly to the affected area, such as "Xiaoer Huashi Ointment" and other medicines specially used to treat neonatal eczema. However, you should not abuse the medicine on your own to avoid causing skin damage or infection. 3. How to care for neonatal eczema 1. Use less soap as possible and avoid soaps with strong alkalinity. No cosmetics are used except facial oil suitable for newborns. 2. Do not wear chemical fiber or woolen clothes. Wear soft and light-colored cotton cloth. Clothes should be loose and do not cover yourself too much. 3. To avoid infection from scratching the skin, wrap your child's hands loosely with soft cloth when sleeping. 4. For scabs on the scalp, eyebrows and other parts, apply sterilized cooking oil and gently scrub them the next day. 5. When eczema breaks out, do not get vaccinated to avoid adverse reactions. 6. Apply the medicine according to the doctor's instructions and do not use irritating antipruritic drugs. Keep your skin clean to avoid infection. |
