What is the reason for the newborn's face to be red? How to treat the newborn's face to be red

Because the skin of a newborn baby is very fragile, a slight exposure to cold wind may easily cause congestion of the skin capillaries, resulting in redness of the face. However, many parents are puzzled as to whether their baby's face will still turn red even when it is warm at home. Is this caused by a disease? So why does a newborn baby's face turn red?

1. Physiological reasons for newborns' red faces
1. Large temperature difference <br/>The baby's cheeks are rich in capillaries. If the temperature difference is poor, the baby will be exposed to cold air and then immediately encounter a rise in temperature, which will easily cause the blood vessels to shrink and rebound quickly, and the baby's face will easily appear red. However, if this happens occasionally, the baby's face will return to its original state immediately. If this happens frequently, it is easy for the blood vessels to lose their dilation function. If this happens for a long time, the blood vessels will harden, and the baby's face will always appear red.

2. Dry skin <br/>If the baby lacks water in the body, the elasticity of the skin will be reduced, and the expansion function will also be weakened. If the baby needs to fully expand the skin, it is easy to harden due to expansion, causing the skin to remain red. Therefore, you should give the baby more water on a regular basis, or you can replenish water by eating fruits and vegetables. At the same time, it is best to use moisturizing lotion after cleansing, so as to better protect the skin.
3. Too many clothes <br/>Many parents are afraid that their children will catch a cold, so they will dress their newborns in thick clothes. This will easily cause the baby to blush due to being too hot. At this time, parents are advised to put their hands into the baby's clothes. If there is hot moisture, it means that the baby is wearing too many clothes and needs to reduce the number of clothes.

2. Pathological causes of red face in newborns
1. Fever <br/>When a newborn has a fever, the skin temperature will be relatively high, which will cause the face to turn red. If you cannot determine whether the child has a fever, it is best to measure the body temperature with a medical thermometer and then seek medical attention in time.
2. Eczema <br/>If the blushing occurs in autumn and winter, it is likely caused by eczema. At this time, the child will not only have a red face, but also have fine red patches on the skin, which will appear one by one, and will also peel off.
