The baby has a red rash on his neck.
There are many reasons for the rash on the baby's neck. The most common is eczema. Eczema may be caused by some allergens, or it may be that the baby has indigestion and is exposed to some chemicals. Eczema appears slowly, and it can also cause the baby to itch and cry, and even cause the baby's poor appetite. Eczema can occur anywhere in the baby's body, first on the cheeks or behind the ears, and then gradually spread throughout the body.
Another factor that causes a rash on the baby's neck is miliaria, which is caused by the blockage of the baby's sweat pores. Usually, prickly heat will suddenly appear and get worse quickly, and symptoms will appear one after another. The hot spots of prickly heat are mainly in the sweaty parts of the baby's neck, chest and back, head and forehead, which will cause the baby's burning and itching. Mothers should pay attention to the distinction.
Nursing methods of infant's neck rash
1. Keep the neck clean and hygienic.
Mothers should pay attention to keeping the baby's neck skin breathable and wipe the excess sweat on the baby's neck with a clean towel in time. After cleaning the neck, be sure to dry it with a clean towel, and then put a breathable cotton gauze on the neck pad to absorb sweat, but pay attention to replacing it in time.
Avoid sultry weather
The clothes and covers worn by the baby should be properly adjusted. It is best to choose some light-colored items that are not easy to cause irritation to the skin. Special attention should be paid to clothes that are not too thick, so as to avoid sweat irritating the skin and aggravating neck discomfort.
Step 3 try to lie prone
It is best to keep a prone position during the baby's rash. When the baby looks up, the wrinkled skin of the neck can be separated, which is beneficial to the ventilation of the skin, keeping the skin dry and avoiding the stimulation of sweat to aggravate the rash symptoms.
Use drugs
Mothers should avoid abusing drugs to their babies, especially prickly heat powder, which is easy to be inhaled into the respiratory tract and harmful to their health. It is suggested that the mother take the baby to the hospital for examination, and then use mild and non-irritating topical drugs according to the doctor's instructions to relieve the symptoms of neck discomfort.
