Newborns may have many problems due to poor resistance, sometimes caused by improper parental care, and sometimes due to the newborn's own reasons. However, after the child has problems, the first measure that parents need to take is timely treatment. Can infrared therapy be used to treat a baby's red buttocks?
Baby red buttocks are commonly known as diaper rash, and almost every baby will experience varying degrees of red buttocks. For this problem, generally speaking, if a baby has broken skin, a 40 watt infrared lamp with infrared function at home can be used to irradiate the baby's buttocks for treatment. However, special attention should be paid. If the temperature or light distance is not controlled properly, it is also very dangerous. Therefore, it is recommended that parents do not treat it at home by themselves. It is best to consult a doctor and have a professional doctor operate it.
If the baby's red buttocks are not serious, it is recommended to use talcum powder for daily care. talcum powder has the effect of keeping the skin dry. Applying it to the child's buttocks can absorb excess moisture and effectively help sweat evaporate, reducing the occurrence of red buttocks. However, when applying, do not apply too thick, a thin layer is enough.
For babies who have already developed concurrent infections, drug treatment is necessary. Different types of drugs can be chosen for different infection situations, but blind medication should not be used as it may worsen the infection or cause problems such as pigmentation. If the child's condition of red buttocks is severe, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
