Can babies take a hot spring bath?

Many parents like to take their children to soak in hot springs. This behavior is incorrect because young children's bodies are still in the process of development and their various functions are not yet perfect. So if they blindly take a hot spring bath, and if their physical constitutions are different, it will cause great harm to their physical health. Therefore, parents are advised not to take infants and young children to soak in hot springs.

Parents' original intention is to bring more health to their babies, but if the method is incorrect, it will hurt them instead. Therefore, it is recommended that parents and friends in life can pay attention to these issues and not cause great harm to their physical health. I hope parents will pay attention to it.

In winter, some parents like to take their children to hot springs. However, considering the current water quality and the baby's physical condition, it is not recommended that parents take babies who are too young to hot springs. Because children's physiques are obviously different from those of adults, they have certain requirements for water quality and temperature. If you take a hot spring bath in a public pool with adults, it will naturally increase the risk of your baby being infected with certain diseases, which is not good for your baby's health.

Some parents will bring their own bathtub, but children’s skin is relatively delicate and their ability to regulate body temperature is poor. When taking a hot spring bath, the relatively high water temperature will cause the body's blood vessels to dilate, allowing more blood to flow throughout the body, while the blood flowing to the brain will decrease, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain, which will undoubtedly harm the development of children's brain cells. In addition, children generally do not "stay still" when taking a hot spring bath like adults, but like to play and make noises. Large amounts of activity will cause the blood vessels around the heart to dilate, causing the child's heart rate to speed up and the heart to consume more calories. At the same time, due to insufficient blood supply to the heart itself, the heart's function will also be affected. It is recommended that children over 3 years old should not soak in hot springs for more than 15 minutes, and children under 3 years old should shorten the soaking time. It is not suitable for children who are too young to soak in hot springs. If the purpose is to enhance the child's physical fitness, parents may wish to take their children swimming more often.

Through these introductions, we can find that, in fact, babies are not suitable for taking a hot spring bath, and parents should pay attention that not only are babies not suitable, but children under three years old should not take a hot spring bath. If you want to better ensure their physical health, taking them swimming is a better way.
