In general, if a baby develops allergic symptoms, in addition to taking some medication for treatment, it is still important to pay close attention to their diet. It is recommended to eat light and easily digestible foods until the baby's allergic symptoms subside before they can resume normal eating. So, a mother asked me, can babies with allergies eat eggs?
Although eggs have high edible value and comprehensive nutrition, they contain a small amount of heterologous protein substances. When babies suffer from skin allergy symptoms, their intestinal digestion ability will become weaker. At this time, the baby's gastrointestinal tract cannot completely digest these heterologous proteins, leading to immune reactions in the baby's immune cells. Therefore, consuming eggs can easily worsen the baby's condition and even cause other adverse reactions such as abdominal pain and diarrhea.
Babies with skin allergies usually feel unbearable itching, and they will always want to scratch with their hands. The more they scratch, the more severe it becomes, and they may even scratch their own skin, forming a vicious cycle. At this point, the mother must stop the baby's scratching behavior in a timely manner. She can try using a warm towel to wipe the itchy area of the baby, and also pay attention to cutting the baby's nails short.
At the same time, parents can also give their baby a warm water bath when they have allergies. This can remove dirt and sweat stains from the baby's body, not only relieve skin itching, but also promote metabolism in the body, and eliminate harmful substances as soon as possible. When the baby has skin diseases, it is necessary to use a special bathtub and towel, and disinfect them thoroughly. In addition, the body must be dried after bathing to avoid causing skin inflammation and aggravating allergy symptoms.
