What to do if a baby has eczema on his face
Eczema on the baby\’s face is a very common phenomenon, and many parents will encounter it. Since babies\’ skin is relatively tender and easily irritated, we need to use some effective treatments and care methods to help babies relieve eczema symptoms and protect their tender skin. This article will introduce in detail the treatment and care of infant facial eczema from several aspects.
1. Dietary conditioning
First of all, dietary conditioning is very important. If a baby suffers from facial eczema, parents can adjust the baby\’s diet. Some spicy foods and allergens, such as seafood, peanuts, milk, etc., may cause skin allergies. Parents can appropriately reduce these foods or completely fast them to reduce the sensitivity of the baby\’s skin.
Secondly, babies need a balanced diet to ensure the intake of protein, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, which can enhance the body\’s immunity and promote the healing of eczema.
Finally, pay attention to balancing the amount of water your baby drinks, and keep the water intake from being too much, otherwise it will affect the healing of eczema.
2. Eczema care
For infant facial eczema, parents need to take effective care, such as changing the baby\’s clothes regularly, keeping the baby\’s clothes clean and avoiding friction and sweat.
At the same time, bathe your baby regularly every day, use mild soap containing natural ingredients, and keep the water at a moderate temperature, not too hot or too cold.
During the care process, do not rub the baby\’s eczema area hard. You can use a wet towel to pat it and wipe it gently.
3. Use special ointment for eczema
During the care process, you also need to use effective ointments to relieve the symptoms of infant eczema. Some herbal ointments are very effective for eczema. Before using ointment, you need to consult a doctor and use it correctly according to the doctor\’s instructions. When using ointment, apply it gently with a cotton swab. Do not touch the eczema area directly with your fingers to avoid infection.
4. Air dry and moisturize
For babies with facial eczema, air-drying and moisturizing are also very important care methods. When your baby\’s eczema is dry and peeling, you need to use a special moisturizer and apply wet compresses to your baby\’s face regularly to reduce discomfort.
At the same time, when the baby is sleeping, the baby\’s face needs to be ventilated and avoid using too many quilts and other supplies to avoid moistening the baby\’s skin.
Summary
For infants with facial eczema, parents should pay attention to diet, take care of eczema every day, use effective eczema ointments, and air-dry and moisturize. Only in this way can the baby\’s eczema symptoms be controlled and the eczema be prevented from developing further. At the same time, attention should also be paid to avoiding the use of cosmetics and washing products that are not suitable for babies, ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the environment, and allowing babies to grow in a healthy and comfortable environment.
