Do a good job of daily care to help your baby get rid of eczema and teach you three tips

After a child has eczema, the first thing to do is to pay attention to daily care. They should take a bath regularly and keep the water temperature and bath time appropriate. In addition, after bathing, the child should be promptly applied with moisturizing cream or moisturizing ointment, and should also wear loose and comfortable clothing. In terms of medication, it is recommended to use topical glucocorticoid ointment or immunosuppressant. If there is a secondary infection, antibiotic ointment should be used for anti-infection treatment.

Clinically, children's eczema is also called atopic dermatitis. This disease is a long-term, easily recurring inflammatory skin disease that usually first occurs in infancy and can be delayed into childhood or even adulthood due to repeated attacks. The disease will be aggravated by heat or cold, and the severe itching makes the child miserable. So what should I do if my child has eczema?
1. Daily care to improve children's eczema
1. Washing and nursing <br/>Children with eczema need to be bathed frequently, and the water temperature should not be too hot, usually kept at around 36 degrees. Too hot water will irritate the child's skin, causing the skin to become drier and aggravate the condition. Secondly, the bathing time should not be too long, and each bathing time should not exceed 20 minutes.
2. Skin care <br/>It is recommended to wipe the child's whole body with moisturizer or moisturizing cream after each bath, while the skin is not completely dry. This will prevent the loss of skin moisture, which will aggravate the symptoms of eczema and increase the itching.
3. Clothing care <br/>When purchasing underwear for children, try to choose pure cotton, soft, and loose clothing. This can prevent excessive friction between the skin and clothing, and is also beneficial to recovery from the illness.
2. Actively use medication to treat children's eczema
1. Glucocorticoids <br/>Currently, the first-line topical drug for treating eczema in children is glucocorticoids. Especially in the early stage of the disease, sufficient strength preparations should be given to quickly control symptoms and avoid prolonged and recurrent illness. However, hormone drugs must be used under the guidance of a doctor, otherwise excessive use may cause harm to the health of children.
2. Immunosuppressants <br/>If the eczema of a child is located in a relatively fragile and sensitive area, such as the face, eyelids, etc., immunosuppressants can be used. However, this drug may cause a short-term burning sensation, so it should be used with discretion. In addition, this drug is generally suitable for children over two years old. For infants over three months old and under two years old, it should be used strictly under the guidance of a doctor.
3. Antibiotics <br/>Some children may have secondary infections, mainly Staphylococcus aureus. In this case, topical antibiotic ointment can be used for anti-infection treatment.
