What to do if your lips are cracked and bleeding

After entering the autumn and winter seasons, everyone must pay attention to moisturizing their skin, because autumn and winter are dry and windy seasons. If you do not pay attention to moisturizing, your skin will easily crack. Lips are particularly prone to cracking, so in the autumn and winter seasons, everyone must use lip balm. However, some people do not pay attention to protecting their lips, which leads to cracking and bleeding. How should we remedy this?

After entering autumn, the climate becomes dry and windy. Because the baby's skin is relatively delicate, it is easy to become dehydrated under the stimulation of external factors. In serious cases, it will even bleed, and the mother will look so distressed. So what should you do if your baby's lips are cracked and bleeding?

1. Feed more warm water. Feed your baby warm water every day, in small amounts and multiple times, to replenish the body with water in time. Babies are mostly playful and usually don’t want to drink water unless they are very thirsty. Mothers must give their babies water at any time; they should also be fed water after drinking milk powder. You can also let your baby drink more juice.

2. Wear a mask when going out. When going out in cold and windy weather or sending your baby to school in the morning, you should put a mask on your baby to protect his lips and face from external factors. When the weather is too cold, try to avoid your baby going out to avoid being exposed to the wind and catching a cold, which will make the skin drier.

3. Apply lipstick. In dry weather, children will lick their lips from time to time due to lack of water, trying to moisturize their dry lips, but this often has the opposite effect, and the more they lick their lips, the drier they become. When a mother sees that her child has dry lips, she should apply lip balm to the child in time and tell him not to lick his lips with his tongue.

4. Dietary supplements. If the skin and lips are dehydrated, you need to supplement vitamins C and B2. These vitamins can be absorbed from food. Mothers can give their babies some fresh vegetables and fruits every day, such as: pears, cucumbers, eggplants, carrots, apples, bananas, dragon fruit, tomatoes, etc. Pay attention to eating a light diet and avoid excessive stimulation to the wound.

5. Maintain indoor humidity. The weather is dry in winter, so you should pay attention to maintaining indoor humidity, especially in air-conditioned and heated rooms. The air in such houses is very dry. You can put a basin of water or a humidifier in the room to alleviate the humidity of the indoor air. This will not only prevent your baby's skin from drying out, but also keep your baby's nasal mucosa moist, making breathing smoother.

When the baby has chapped and bleeding lips, the first person to feel distressed is the mother. There is a saying that goes, "The mother feels the pain of her child's birth." If the baby is in any discomfort, the mother is the one who feels the most distressed. Therefore, mothers should pay attention to their baby’s daily diet and daily life to protect their baby’s health.
