How to effectively prevent milk ringworm in children

Milk ringworm in children is quite common in life, and the impact of milk ringworm on children is also relatively large, so every parent does not want their children to have such a disease. Therefore, as parents, we must do a good job of prevention in daily life. So, how to prevent milk ringworm in children effectively?

Pediatric eczema, commonly known as "milk ringworm", is a common skin inflammation. The main manifestations are red spots or erythema on the affected skin, which gradually increase in number, and some merge into large patches, which may be accompanied by water flow, erosion, scabs, itching, and often relapse. This disease is prone to occur on the head and face, and then gradually spreads to the neck, shoulders, back, limbs, and even the whole body. The sick child is often irritable and restless due to extreme itching, crying at night and affecting sleep. In addition, because children scratch with their hands, they often get bacterial skin infections, which further aggravates the condition.

There are many causes of eczema, and its development is directly related to a variety of internal and external factors. Certain external factors such as moonlight, ultraviolet rays, cold, damp heat and other physical factors, contact with silk or artificial fibers, and certain topical drugs can cause eczema; mechanical friction, improper care, etc. can also cause this disease. Among them, improper diet is one of the main factors causing eczema. Therefore, when a child has eczema, in addition to going to the hospital for treatment, you should also check whether the diet is proper and try to find out the pathogenic factors so that targeted treatment can be achieved.

If the occurrence of milk ringworm is related to breast milk, then it needs to be analyzed carefully, because the milk composition of breast milk is largely related to the mother's diet. The mother should carefully review whether she has eaten certain allergenic foods, so that these allergens enter the child's body through breast milk and induce milk ringworm or aggravate the symptoms of milk ringworm. If the baby's milk ringworm is related to the mother's diet, the breastfeeding mother should temporarily stop eating allergic foods such as eggs, fish, shrimp, crab, etc., and avoid eating irritating foods. Never stop breastfeeding blindly, because breast milk is the best natural food for babies. It is not only nutritious and easy to digest and absorb, but also contains a large amount of immunoglobulin, which can enhance the baby's immunity, improve the body's disease resistance, and promote the child's growth and development. It is irreplaceable by any food.

In addition, children with milk ringworm should also pay attention to skin care, avoid friction or use of hot water and soap, and wear soft, loose and clean clothes. Silk and wool fabrics and colored clothes should not come into direct contact with the skin, and avoid direct exposure to sunlight. For children who have developed milk ringworm, they should be actively treated, and do not scrub with hot water or soap to avoid irritating the skin. Most children with milk ringworm will get better and recover after 6 months as they grow older.

The occurrence of milk eczema in children will cause itching and pain on the child's skin, and the child will cry frequently, so it is necessary for us parents to understand the relevant preventive measures to help children prevent milk eczema.
