Baby has small pimples on face

Everyone should know that a baby's skin is very tender and smooth, and it may turn red even if it is lightly touched. This makes the baby's skin susceptible to bacterial infection, causing related skin problems. Generally speaking, babies will not get acne on their faces, but some parents may find that many small pimples appear on their babies' faces for no apparent reason when taking care of them. At this time, parents should understand the causes and treatments of small pimples on their babies' faces.

Why does my baby have a lot of acne on his face?

1. Eczema. Eczema is very common in children. At first, it may be just a small dot, and sometimes there is white inside the small pimple. After it is broken, a small piece will grow, which will disappear after a while, and then start to grow again, over and over again.

1. Allergies. Baby’s skin is delicate and prone to allergies. It is very common that clothes, toys, milk powder, etc. contain ingredients that make babies prone to allergies.

2. Getting angry. Getting angry may be accompanied by symptoms of dry stool or constipation, and sometimes accompanied by symptoms of excessive eye mucus.

3. The weather is dry and the humidity is low, so the baby's face can easily become rough, flushed, and even develop red bumps and small pimples.

4. Prickly heat. When the weather is hot, babies are prone to prickly heat, which is more common in the hot summer.

5. Excessive oil secretion. Babies have a fast metabolism and exuberant oil secretion. Oil secretion is also a body mechanism to protect the skin. However, if the oil secretion on the face is too much and is not cleaned in time, it is easy to absorb dust, etc., leading to allergies and small acne.

How to prevent acne on baby's face

1. Control the bathing time and do not overheat the bath water. Keep the bathing time within 10 minutes. Do not use shower gel every day. Generally, 1-2 times a week is enough.

2. After bathing, use a soft towel to gently dry the baby's skin. While the skin is still moist, apply skin care products all over the body as soon as possible, and rub it with your hands so that the skin care products can be fully absorbed by the skin.

3. Breastfeeding mothers should pay attention to their diet and allergic foods. The most common foods they are allergic to are egg white and milk, followed by wheat, fish, soybeans and peanuts. If babies or breastfeeding mothers do not eat these allergic foods, the symptoms of eczema or dermatitis will be significantly alleviated or even cured.

4. Dry spit-up and saliva in time. If drool rash has formed, be sure not to rub it vigorously. Change the saliva towel frequently, as the towel fabric is relatively soft.

5. After cutting the baby's nails and getting eczema on his face, the baby should scratch it to avoid scratching and infection. Be sure to cut the baby's nails frequently.

During the growth and development stage, the baby's body resistance is weak. If the baby wants to grow up healthily, it not only needs sufficient nutritional support, but also requires parents to pay more attention to the baby's daily life and living environment, cultivate good living habits and eating habits for the baby, and enhance the baby's resistance, so as to reduce the threat of infectious diseases.
