2-year-old baby's body itches and large lumps appear after scratching

Everyone wants to have good skin, as delicate as a baby's. However, two-year-old babies often have skin symptoms due to their poor immunity. For example, large bumps appear when they scratch the body due to itching. Considering the baby's health, mothers are always worried. Here are some reasons that cause babies to itch and get large bumps when scratched. I hope this can solve your urgent needs.

1. The possibility of allergic dermatitis is relatively high, which is mostly caused by mosquito bites or damp clothes. It is more likely to occur if you have pets at home. It manifests as small red bumps and itchy skin, which appear repeatedly. First of all, you should pay attention to personal hygiene, change clothes frequently, take a bath frequently, keep clothes clean and dry. If you have a pet, it is best not to let it come into contact with it, or give it away. Don't eat spicy and irritating foods, and avoid eating fish and shrimp.

2. Symptoms of urticaria are caused by allergies. For treatment, you can take ebastine, statins, vitamin C and chlorpheniramine orally. Use calamine lotion externally. If the disease recurs, it is recommended to go to the hospital for an allergy test. Only by staying away from allergens can it be effectively cured and less likely to recur. During the illness, be careful not to eat spicy seafood or other irritating and inflammatory foods.

3. If the bumps have blisters, it is eczema. Eczema is an allergic skin disease. The main cause is intolerance or allergy to food, inhalation or contact. For eczema, you can use iodine to rub the affected area, or use eczema ointment, and then apply calamine lotion, take isatis root granules orally, etc. for effective treatment.

4. If the itching is severe due to strong wind and there are many wheals, you may add wind-removing drugs such as Saposhnikovia divaricata, Uncaria rhynchophylla, and Chantuo; if the dampness is strong and the blisters are numerous and large, you may add Coix seed and Plantago seed to enhance the effect of removing dampness; if the rash is red due to strong heat, you may add Gardenia jasminoides and Scutellaria baicalensis to enhance the ability to clear heat; if you usually have blood deficiency, pale face and pale tongue, and soft and thin pulse, you may add Angelica sinensis, Rehmannia glutinosa, White Peony Root, and Salvia miltiorrhiza to make up for the deficiency; if the skin is scratched and secondary infection occurs, resulting in pus and erosion, then this prescription should remove Ephedra and Bombyx batryticatus, and add Taraxacum mongolicum, Coix seed, Patrinia salviae miltiorrhiza, etc., focusing on clearing heat and detoxifying.
