My daughter has a lot of red scratches on her back recently, which lasted for 1 month. I suspect that diapers are too tight. The baby just turned 1 year, about 2 1 kg. She is not fat. Now that she has bought the largest size diapers, it shouldn't hurt. But now there are scratches, so I cut a piece at the back of each diaper to prevent the diaper from rubbing against the lower back. However, after a few days, the "scratch" is still there, and there is no decreasing trend.

So I continued to look for other reasons, searched some relevant information on the internet, and I didn't get a reasonable explanation. It was not until last Sunday morning that I saw my sleeping daughter scratching her back that I found out that these so-called scratches were actually scratched by herself! If it itches, there should be something wrong with the skin. I will take the baby to the hospital to see a dermatologist. Sure enough, the doctor said that the baby was dry eczema.

Second, how did dry eczema come from?

I always thought eczema was erythema, but I didn't expect it to be invisible, a bit like tinea, and it is also a kind of eczema. Why does the baby get dry eczema? The doctor said that there are two main points: dryness and heat.

After listening to the doctor's words, I thought about it. Recently, in the early spring, the weather was hot and cold, and the air conditioning at home was not very good. Grandma was afraid of freezing when she took care of her grandson, and now she is still wearing a small cotton-padded jacket. The baby may be quite hot. Then the old man won't bathe his baby every day, so he won't wear body lotion every day. The baby's skin loses moisture and sebum secretion decreases, which will lead to dry eczema.

Third, the battle of dry eczema

For baby dry eczema, parents can do the following two things in prevention and treatment:

1. Dress the baby appropriately.

When choosing clothes, try to avoid all external stimuli, soft and wide. Don't wear wool and chemical fiber clothes directly on your body. When we don't know what clothes to wear for our baby, we can choose according to the clothes of adults. It is more appropriate to add and subtract one piece of adult clothes.

The picture comes from the internet.

The dressing principle of "three warmth and two coolness" is more appropriate.

The three warms are warm back, warm belly and warm feet. The second cooling means that the head and chest should be cold.

Pay attention to the following three points when choosing clothes:

① Choose cotton underwear: it not only absorbs sweat and breathes, but also blocks the loss of body heat.

2 wear a Chinese-style chest covering: wear a Chinese-style chest covering for the baby, which can protect the stomach without overheating other parts.

3 Close-fitting vest: After wearing the vest, both arms and hands can be exposed, which is convenient for its movement and putting on.

In addition, choose cotton breathable socks, don't cover your head too hot, and don't wear too thick and bloated clothes, so as to avoid chest compression and affect normal breathing and cardiopulmonary function.

2. Do a good job of moisturizing your baby

To prevent dry eczema is to pay attention to moisturizing. Because the baby's skin is delicate and has poor adaptability to the outside world, the dry environment will make the skin more sensitive. Pay attention to a reasonable bath at ordinary times. For the baby, bathing should not be too frequent, so as to avoid the skin getting drier and drier, and at the same time, it will destroy the baby's natural skin barrier and make the skin more fragile.

It's best to rub skin care baby cream on your baby several times a day and choose products that are mild and suitable for your baby. Generally, take preventive measures, and wipe your face twice a day and your body once. If parents find the baby's skin dry, itchy and red, they should pay attention to it. You can rub it on your face 3-5 times a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.

3. Pay attention to the baby's diet

First of all, give your baby some water, especially when the weather is dry. Don't wait for your baby's lips to dry before you remember to give your baby water. Secondly, avoid eating allergic food, insist on breastfeeding and add complementary food in time. Infants allergic to milk can be fed with soybean milk and goat milk instead of milk, and infants allergic to eggs can eat egg yolk alone.

Baby's skin is very delicate, so parents should be more patient when nursing, and try their best to do a good job in baby care to prevent skin problems. Don't panic when the baby has skin problems, don't use drugs indiscriminately, and see a dermatologist in time if necessary.

But I believe that parents pay more attention to their baby's hygiene and eating habits in daily life, which can be effectively prevented.
