When children are too young, they cannot speak, and any discomfort caused by illness needs to be observed by parents. Due to their delicate skin, some facial symptoms are particularly noticeable in children. If you find that your baby's chin is peeling, don't sit idly by. It needs timely care to prevent the situation from getting worse. What should I do if my baby's chin peels?
What should I do if my baby's chin peels
If the baby's chin peels, pay attention to whether there are milk stains or saliva on the baby's chin during feeding. After feeding the baby, pay attention to wiping it clean, and if the baby drowns, clean it up in a timely manner. In this situation, it is also important to avoid exposing the baby to stimulating substances, and breastfeeding mothers should not eat foods that are easily allergic, let alone feed the baby.
How is baby's chin peeling caused
If the baby's chin is red and peeling, it is likely due to the baby's chin being frequently wet during feeding and not being dried in time, which may be caused by perioral dermatitis. If the skin is dry and peeling off, it may be caused by dehydration, eczema, or the baby's skin being irritated and allergic. Specific diagnosis can only be made after examination.
If the baby's chin peeling is not serious, it is important to pay attention to hygiene by washing it with warm water and taking care of their diet and care. If there is no good recovery, it is necessary to identify the specific cause and then take targeted medication for treatment. Ask the doctor to prescribe medication and pay attention to maintenance and care. Mothers should be careful when eating during lactation and not stimulate their babies through breast milk.
