Many parents are not unfamiliar with eczema, which is a common skin disease among infants. It is an itchy skin inflammation caused by external factors. Babies with eczema often have small red blisters on their face, limbs, or body, which can cause small areas of erosion when grabbed by hand. So, will the baby's buttocks develop eczema?
Baby's buttocks may develop eczema. According to relevant studies, the head and face are the common areas where eczema occurs, but in severe cases, it can also affect the limbs and buttocks, which is highly likely to cause eczema.
There are many reasons that can cause eczema, including environment, genetics, food, etc. Especially for infants' buttocks, prolonged contact with diapers, which are moist and not breathable, provides a favorable breeding environment for eczema.
Secondly, babies with low immunity are also more likely to develop eczema, or genetic allergies are also one of the reasons why babies develop eczema. Eczema is mainly characterized by itching, redness, and swelling of the skin. Sometimes, papules, blisters, and other symptoms may appear, and itching can lead to the formation of pustules after scratching and infection.
Parents should pay more attention to observing their baby's buttocks after developing eczema, and can apply targeted ointments, olive oil, buttock cream, etc. Keep your baby's buttocks dry, change diapers in a timely manner, and avoid keeping them in a damp environment for a long time.
In addition, external stimuli should be avoided and contact with items with high levels of chemicals such as dishwashing detergent, soap, cosmetics, etc. should be minimized; Drink more water and eat less food that is prone to getting overheated. After getting overheated, the baby's physical condition weakens and they are more likely to contract eczema.
