Baby allergies are different from adult allergies. Children are relatively young and have poor body resistance. If allergies occur, medication should be used with caution, otherwise it will have a certain impact on the child's growth and development. After the child has an allergy, be sure not to let the child scratch with his hands. Parents must also give the child timely treatment to avoid the disease causing great harm and pain to the child. How to quickly eliminate children's allergies (1) Avoid overfeeding. If your child has just started eating complementary foods, if you feed him too much at this time, the child’s stomach will not be able to bear it over time. Therefore, you must feed your child in small amounts and not feed too much at once. During this period, you must ensure the nutritional level of the food and only choose light food. This will reduce irritation to the child’s skin and prevent allergies. (2) Do not use soap or chemical detergents to wash your child’s face or clothes. Such detergents are harmful to the skin and may even increase skin sensitivity. When choosing clothes for children, it is best to choose cotton and silk, because this kind of cotton and silk clothes are softer and more comfortable for children to wear. If necessary, you can apply erythromycin ointment to your child's skin to control skin itching. (3) Mothers should not bring their babies to crowded places. Such an environment may cause bacteria to grow on the baby's skin, causing skin allergies. If the allergy is severe, antihistamines should be given to the child for treatment. These drugs include chlorpheniramine and astemizole. These drugs have therapeutic effects on allergies caused by any reason, but they must be used under the guidance of a doctor. What should I do if my child 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 your baby's feet once a day, 30 to 50 times each time (press or rub), or soak your baby's feet in moxa leaves, which can help relieve your 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. |
