What to do if baby's chin is red and peeling

The baby's skin is very delicate, especially in winter. Because the weather is very cold, the baby's skin is easily stimulated by the outside air, which will greatly reduce the baby's skin resistance, causing the chin to become red and peeling. At this time, treatment is needed, otherwise it will cause pain to the baby. So what should I do if the baby's chin becomes red and peeling?

First, what should I do if my baby’s chin is red and flaky? Is it because of the long-term rubbing of clothes, or is it because of the saliva that is not cleaned up? Another possibility is eczema, which is the legendary milk rash. It is best to go to the hospital. Children should not apply ointments randomly, as it will cause great harm. You can temporarily wash it with light salt water.

Second, consider that it is eczema. After the baby has eczema, parents should not apply any medicine on the baby randomly. In addition to taking your baby to see a doctor and using medication, you should also pay attention to the following general methods of caring for dermatitis. When bathing your baby, it is advisable to use warm water and non-alkaline bath products to clean the baby's body. For babies with intertrigo, special attention should be paid to cleaning the folds of the skin. After washing, wipe the moisture off the baby's body and apply a non-oily moisturizer to avoid hindering the normal breathing of the skin. The baby's hair should also be washed every day. If the baby has seborrheic dermatitis, washing the head carefully can remove the scabs. If the scab has hardened and stuck to the head, apply olive oil on the affected area and then wash it after a while. Parents should always pay attention to changes in temperature and humidity around their baby. Babies with contact dermatitis should especially avoid exposing their skin to cold wind or strong sunlight. In summer, after your baby sweats during exercise, you should wipe off his sweat carefully; when the weather is cold and dry, you should apply anti-allergic non-oily moisturizer to your baby. In addition to paying attention to weather changes, parents should not let their babies wear clothes that are easy to irritate the skin, such as wool, silk, nylon, etc.

What should I do if my baby's chin is red and flaky? To prevent the baby's skin from drying out, moisturize the baby's skin in time. For babies, especially newborns, boiled water is the best choice for hydration. Water also has many functions such as dissipating heat, regulating water and electrolyte balance, etc. And boiled water is a completely safe and healthy drink that will not produce any negative effects.
