Infant eczema is a common skin allergy in young babies, and because eczema can cause itching on the skin, infants and young children may scratch and scratch, causing the eczema area to expand. In severe cases, it can also cause skin exudation and ulceration. So, what should I do if my baby has severe eczema and their skin is rotten?
1. In the early stage of infantile eczema, the skin turns red and small rashes appear. However, because eczema can make the skin itch, infants often rub and scratch, which can easily cause skin rupture. Therefore, at this time, do not use warm water to clean the affected area, as it can easily cause the ulceration to expand. It is necessary to keep the ulcerated skin dry and conducive to scab healing.
2. For local skin ulceration, do not use medication without authorization, as the causes of infantile eczema are complex. Therefore, after seeking medical treatment, use eczema ointment prescribed by a doctor for targeted treatment. Apply the skin ulceration according to the doctor's advice every day, and if necessary, wrap and protect it locally.
3. During the treatment of eczema, if the baby has added supplementary food, don't eat fish floss or shrimp porridge and other foods in the near future, because eczema is a skin allergy phenomenon, and such foods are very likely to cause allergic symptoms to worsen, so it is recommended to let the baby eat after the eczema disappears for a period of time. And breastfeeding mothers should also pay attention to their diet in the near future and avoid eating stimulating foods.
