Two-year-old baby's skin itching

It is quite common for a two-year-old baby to have itchy skin. Children have poor immunity and their skin is relatively delicate. They are often affected by internal and external factors, which lead to itchy skin and skin diseases. For example, eczema and allergies may cause itchy skin in children. At this time, it is necessary to seek timely treatment and strengthen good conditioning.

Two-year-old baby's skin itching

1. The baby absorbs too much car exhaust. The main pollutants emitted by automobile exhaust are hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and solid particulate matter. These exhaust gases cause great irritation to the baby's respiratory tract. These factors may directly induce allergies in the baby.

2. Caused by poor household hygiene. Carpets, mattresses, sofas, etc. used in the home contain a large amount of fiber, which not only easily breeds mites, but also can directly irritate the baby's respiratory tract. Mites can cause great harm to babies and affect their health, so mothers must pay attention to the environment at home. Baby bedding and household items should be changed and washed frequently, and taken out to dry in the sun frequently when the sun is good.

3. Caused by furry pets. A survey by Japanese medical researchers showed that if babies under one year old live in a family with animals such as cats and rabbits, the baby's chance of developing allergic dermatitis will increase significantly. Because animal excrement and dander can easily cause skin allergies in babies.

What to do if your two-year-old baby has skin allergies

1. If your baby is allergic, do not let him scratch with his hands. Instead, touch him gently to prevent the vicious cycle of "itch-scratch-itch".

2. After the baby is allergic, do not bathe the baby frequently. During the bathing process, do not use irritating soaps for the baby, and use moisturizer on the baby immediately after washing.

3. Maintain appropriate temperature and humidity in the baby's room. Do not always let the baby stay in the air-conditioned room. If it is too hot, mothers can consider putting a basin of water in the room, which can both lower the temperature and increase the humidity.

4. Massage the Quan point on the sole of the baby's feet once a day, massage (press or rub) 30 to 50 times each time, or soak the baby's feet in moxa leaves, which can help relieve the baby's skin allergies.

5. Pressing the fontanelle on the top of the baby's head can also relieve the pain, but it should be noted that this method is only suitable for babies under 1 and a half years old. The specific method is that the father covers the baby's fontanelle with his hands. Because the father is obviously stronger than the mother, covering it for 15 to 30 minutes will be enough. When pressing the fontanelle on the top of the baby's head, give the baby plenty of warm water. Remember not to give the baby hot water, otherwise it will easily irritate the baby's weak nasal and laryngeal mucosa, causing mucosal congestion and decreased resistance.
