These facial skin problems are most likely to trouble babies in hot weather. Only by understanding them clearly can we deal with them accurately.

The weather has been a rollercoaster these past few days, hot and cold. Take Shanghai, where I am located, for example. The highest temperature jumped to 30 degrees a few days ago, but after a rain, the temperature quickly dropped to 15 degrees. Friends around me joked that there was a promotion of 15 off 30 degrees in this weather. Because of the unpredictable weather, more and more sick babies are getting sick. In addition to common respiratory problems, skin problems are also increasing. A mother said that when she was bathing her baby, she found two red bumps on her armpits. They were red and swollen, not like mosquito bumps, but very itchy. The baby kept scratching, and she didn’t know what the bites were. . Another mother discovered that her baby had a small mosquito bite on her hand. She applied some toilet water on the baby. After a while, the mosquito bite disappeared, but soon another one popped up nearby. The mother is very confused, why do mosquitoes focus on babies and bite them? But she still didn\’t pay attention. The mosquito bites appeared and disappeared. One night, several mosquitoes appeared on the baby\’s arms. Another mother came home from get off work and found a lot of small red rashes on her baby\’s chin, which looked a bit like eczema, but not exactly like it. Many of the rashes had white pustules on them, which was particularly scary. Various skin problems trouble babies and mothers. Today I will share with you the various skin problems that babies are most likely to have in this season. Mite Packs Mite packs are most likely to appear during this season. The first baby mentioned above suffered from mite blisters: these have already appeared. Some mite blisters are not so red, but they are also very itchy, and some will slowly turn into blisters. When the weather gets hot, everyone will change their bedding and clothes, put away the winter bedding and thick clothes, and take out the thin spring and autumn quilts and clothes. These bedding and clothes are stored for too long, and they are prone to breed mites. Now that we are about to enter the rainy season, the weather is hot and humid, and mites will breed in large numbers. If the mites are not removed in time when taking them out for use, insect bite dermatitis will easily occur. In addition to sheets, bedding and clothing, mites are also widely distributed in our lives, especially in dark places such as carpets, mattresses, pillows, sofas, mats, and air conditioning filters. These mites, which are only 0.5 mm in size, will directly bite the skin, especially the neck, chest, abdomen, back, limbs and other places. After being bitten by mites, red bumps will appear on the body, which are red and itchy, and it will take a long time to recover. And those with sensitive skin are more likely to suffer from it. Some babies may also develop papular urticaria due to mite bites. The corpses, secretions and excretions of mites are the culprits of many allergic diseases, which can lead to allergic dermatitis, rhinitis, tracheitis, cough, asthma and even nephritis, seriously endangering human health. Some babies are prone to allergies, and eczema or urticaria are caused by mites. From a health perspective, it is very necessary to remove mites regularly. If you have a mite remover at home, regular removal with a professional mite remover is the best. If you don’t have a mite removal device, many vacuum cleaners now also have a mite removal function, or you can put your bedding and clothes in the sun before using them. Mattresses, pillows, fabric sofas and other places must also be cleaned regularly, or ordinary mattresses should be replaced with better antibacterial effects.Varieties that are less likely to breed mites; the air-conditioning outlets should be cleaned regularly. In rooms with babies, it is recommended that you try not to use carpets. Toys, floor mats, etc. that babies often come into contact with should also be cleaned in time. Now that we have gradually entered the rainy season, the weather is humid. When the weather is humid and hot, it is the peak period for mite breeding. Therefore, you need to do a good job of dehumidifying your home to prevent the breeding of mites. Households that have the conditions may consider equipping themselves with a dehumidifier. If your baby has been bitten by mites, you can wash the affected area with calamine lotion or sulfur soap, and then apply products to relieve itching and help skin convergence. Although it is important to prevent mites, I would like to remind all mothers here that cleaning should not be excessive. Because many babies are allergic nowadays, it is not caused by mothers not paying attention to environmental cleanliness, but by paying too much attention to the environment. Many mothers are afraid that their babies will be exposed to bacteria, so the items used by their babies are strictly disinfected. As soon as their babies are born, they are in a particularly clean environment. But such caution is not a good thing for babies, because our overall environment is too poor. When babies are born, their skin does not get exercise, and their skin’s immune function will be abnormally enhanced if they are exposed to a little bit of air. Impurities can cause allergies. Therefore, hospitals now also ask babies who are allergic to dust mites to use some mite extracts to achieve the purpose of anti-allergy through constant exercise. If your baby also develops allergies because he pays too much attention to environmental hygiene, then Yuehua’s suggestion is to make the baby a little dirty, and often let the baby crawl on the ground, roll around, and play on the grass, so that the baby’s skin I wouldn\’t be so sensitive. Mosquito bag When the weather is hot, the most annoying thing is mosquitoes! The baby\’s blood flow is fast and the temperature is high, which is particularly easy to attract mosquitoes. After being bitten by a mosquito, the mosquito will release venom in the body. After the venom is recognized by the body, a defense reaction occurs, the release of histamine, and the bite area will itch and swell. If it is determined to be a mosquito bite, the treatment method is very simple. You can carry a bottle of alkaline soap with you. After the baby is bitten, immediately wash the bite area with alkaline soap to prevent the bite. Then apply a cooling, anti-itching, moisturizing product and repeat it several times. The key is to stop the itching, otherwise the baby will keep scratching and become irritable. Some babies are allergic to mosquitoes. After being bitten, their skin will not only form a small bump, but may also swell. I once encountered a baby who had half his eye swollen after being bitten by a mosquito. When encountering such a baby, you should use products with anti-inflammatory, anti-itching, and analgesic effects to help the baby recover faster. This year is another year of mosquitoes. It is recommended that everyone should do a good job in preventing mosquitoes and prepare some safe mosquito-killing products in advance to keep babies away from mosquitoes. But there is another kind of \”mosquito bag\” in life, which looks similar. It\’s just that they are special. After appearing for a few hours, they disappear inexplicably, and then not long after, they appear again in other places, slowly, more and more. Just like what appeared on the arm of the baby in front, this is not a \”mosquito bag\”, but urticaria. Most urticaria will not be that serious right away. Initially there are only one or two packages. If at this time, we can clearChu understood the problem and treated it accordingly, and the urticaria subsided quickly. It’s just that when urticaria first appears, it’s easy for mothers to ignore it and misdiagnose it. This will miss the best time to treat hives. When the urticaria becomes more and more numerous, it will be more difficult for the baby to deal with it. Therefore, if mosquito bites appear on the baby for no apparent reason, the mother must observe carefully and be a caring person. Regarding the treatment of urticaria, I wrote some time ago \”Children are itchy all over and suddenly lose consciousness, be careful!\” This is the most common disease in spring. If your baby suffers from urticaria, use the methods below to deal with it! Eczema Eczema is a skin problem that plagues countless babies. Statistics show that out of 100 children who go to the dermatology department, 80 are for eczema. This data is still scary. Some children are born with eczema all over their face. It is cured with great difficulty, but it relapses not long after. And every spring and autumn, if you are not careful, eczema will appear all over your face. This baby has typical febrile eczema, so the rash is very red and has white pustules. Eczema has a great impact on the body. 80% of children with eczema will develop allergic diseases such as allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, and allergic conjunctivitis. Babies who had eczema in childhood will have skin problems when they grow up. Some eczema will continue, and some will not have obvious eczema, but their bodies are itchy and dry all the time, and the baby scratches and scratches desperately. This is also caused by eczema. Some babies When you enter puberty, your face is particularly susceptible to acne. Therefore, if the baby frequently develops eczema, the mother must not take it lightly. After your baby\’s eczema is cured, you should also pay attention to whether your child has other allergic symptoms and manifestations. Eczema initially only manifests as dry skin. At this time, pay attention to using emollient to hydrate the skin. The baby\’s skin barrier itself is more fragile than that of adults. In addition, the current air pollution is high, and there are many dirt and allergens in the air. These are always threatening the baby\’s already fragile skin barrier. Nowadays, everyone pays special attention to hygiene when raising babies and bathes them every day. . Bathing will increase the loss of water in the already fragile skin barrier. At this time, the baby\’s skin problems will be aggravated and become more difficult. To improve your baby\’s skin condition, moisturizing is the top priority. Babies with skin problems should apply moisturizer generously after bathing every day. At other times, when the skin feels dry and itchy, they should also use moisturizer at any time. Moisturizer can repair the skin, replenish moisture to the skin, form a protective film on the surface of the skin, and trap cells that have lost water. If your baby\’s eczema has already appeared, you can use massage to clear away heat and penetrate the rash, and you can also combine it with medicine to control the eczema in time. Mild eczema can be cured with ordinary dehumidifying and anti-itching ointments. Moderate to severe eczema needs to be treated with hormonal ointments first and then generous amounts of moisturizer. While dealing with eczema, improve your diet. For babies with allergies, do not add complementary foods too early. It is best to wait until 6 months before adding them. When adding complementary foods to your baby, you must pay attention to the method. Only add one kind at a time. After observing that the baby has no gastrointestinal discomfort or allergies, add another one. For those prone to allergiesThere should be a one-week interval between meals. In this way, the single intake is small and does not reach the allergenic dose. After the body absorbs and excretes it, the body can accept the same food again after a few days. When adding complementary foods to your baby, try to choose fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as nutritious, high-calorie and high-protein foods, and eat less canned foods. Although many canned foods advertise that they have no additives, the nutrition of the food will definitely be lost after such a long period of storage. Children with allergies should avoid eating fishy substances. Freshwater fish, shallow sea fish, and various shellfish, shrimps, crabs, etc. are more likely to be allergic. Deep sea fish such as cod and salmon are less likely to be allergic. Therefore, if you need to supplement fish for your baby, try to choose deep-sea fish. Prickly heat: The weather is hot, and there is another type of skin problem that is particularly similar to eczema – prickly heat. Prickly heat is usually caused by covering the skin too much, which makes the skin not breathable. In the south, it is very hot now. Some mothers are worried that their babies will get sick, so they dare not turn on the air conditioner and cover their babies tightly. In this case, the babies will easily get sick. Babies have tender skin and sweat a lot. They are particularly prone to prickly heat when they are hot or covered. Especially some obese babies who are overweight are prone to wrinkles on their necks, armpits, inner thighs, etc. If these wrinkles are covered, they are more likely to develop prickly heat, and prickly heat often evolves into \”rubbing rash\” and becomes red. , desquamation, moisture, even rottenness, chapping, etc. may occur, and the baby will be itchy and uncomfortable. Therefore, you must not be careless when dealing with prickly heat. It is necessary to clean the skin well. Take your baby out to play in the summer and give him a bath immediately after returning home. Apply talcum powder after the bath. Especially for fat babies, the folds of the skin must be wiped dry in time. Apply talcum powder to keep the skin in these folds fresh, so as to effectively prevent prickly heat. Even if the baby is not particularly fat, because the baby\’s body is relatively small, the skin on their neck, armpits, and inner thighs are still easy to stick together. Try to use safe talcum powder after taking a bath and cleaning. As for talcum powder, be sure to choose talc-free, preferably organic! Rooms with babies should be ventilated in time. When the weather is hot, it is best to turn on the air conditioner at home. The temperature should not be too low, as long as the body feels comfortable. Try to turn on the air conditioner when your baby is sleeping. Many times, babies get prickly heat because they are too hot while sleeping and are covered. If your baby has a lot of prickly heat, use prickly heat remover to make the prickly heat subside as soon as possible. For small babies, you can dilute the prickly heat water and spray it on the skin surface, or mix the prickly heat water into the bath water and let the baby take a bath. For older babies, you can apply prickly heat water directly on the skin surface. Basically, as long as the environment is suitable and treated properly, prickly heat will subside quickly. Prickly heat and eczema are confused. In fact, prickly heat and eczema are obviously different. Prickly heat usually appears in a large area in a short period of time, while eczema usually appears in a few spores slowly and does not appear suddenly in a large area. (This is eczema) From the appearance, although their color is small red rashes, eczema feels hard and the rashes are usually in clusters without yellow or white tips. The skin around eczema is dry and prone to scabbing. Prickly heat touchIt doesn\’t feel hard, it\’s a big piece, and white tips are easy to appear. These common skin problems in spring and summer can be effectively prevented as long as preventive measures are taken. If mothers pay more attention, their babies will be healthier!
