Newborns are more prone to developing eczema, which is mainly caused by genetics, environment, and diet. After the baby develops eczema, parents need extra care, such as keeping the baby dry and tidy, avoiding letting the baby eat stimulating food, and so on. So, can I wash my baby after they develop eczema?
After a baby develops eczema, the following points should be noted:
1. When bathing a baby, it is not advisable to use overheated water or highly irritating soap to wash areas with eczema, and the frequency of bathing should not be too frequent. So during the period when babies have eczema, they can take showers, but it is important to pay attention to the frequency;
2. Keep the air circulation in the house to prevent bacterial contamination of the baby's injured area; Frequently change and wash baby's clothes, with loose clothing being the main choice, otherwise it is easy to rub against the baby's skin and worsen the condition;
3. Mainly clean the baby's hands to avoid scratching the skin. After suffering from eczema, the baby will feel very itchy, and scratching at this time will cause the skin to be infected by bacteria;
4. After the baby develops eczema, parents should actively search for the baby's allergens. If the baby is allergic to food, they should be careful to avoid giving the baby this food again. If you cannot find the allergen by yourself, you can also go to the hospital for examination;
From this, it can be seen that there are still many things parents need to pay attention to when their babies suffer from eczema. If they haven't recovered after a period of time, they should take their babies to seek medical attention in a timely manner.
