Children's skin is very tender and fragile. If not taken care of in daily life, it may cause some skin problems. Some parents find red spots on their children's skin when they change clothes, some are only small parts, and some are densely packed with red spots, which makes parents very worried. So, what are the reasons for red spots on children's bodies?
Red spots on children's bodies may indicate the presence of prickly heat, which is more common in hot summers. Many children develop prickly heat, mainly caused by adverse stimuli. The summer temperature is relatively high, and children's metabolism is faster. They also exercise regularly, and sweating is more common. If not cleaned and cared for in a timely manner, the skin may become blocked, leading to prickly heat, which usually occurs in the neck, chest, and other areas.
Eczema can also cause red spots on the skin, which is related to the living environment. If a child is often in a damp environment or if the room is not ventilated on rainy days, it can cause red spots on the skin. Parents need to learn to identify the cause so that targeted treatment can be carried out. Moreover, eczema is more difficult to treat than prickly heat, and it is also very stubborn.
Some red spots are caused by measles, which is the result of bacterial infection. However, the causes of infection are different, so the symptoms are also different. The size and range of the red spots are also different. If it is measles, along with the red spots on the skin, there will be itching symptoms, and even a feeling of burning skin.
