The weather in summer is relatively hot, and even without exercise, it is easy to sweat. For pregnant women, their body temperature is already higher than that of ordinary people. As summer approaches, they will be even less heat-resistant, making it easy to develop prickly heat. Although this is not a serious disease, it can cause skin itching and burning pain, which has a great impact on the life and sleep of pregnant women. So, what can be used to eliminate prickly heat on pregnant women?
Wearing prickly heat powder on pregnant women can eliminate it, but some ordinary prickly heat powder should be avoided as much as possible. It is best to use prickly heat powder specifically for pregnant women or baby prickly heat powder, which are relatively safe. Pregnant women should choose the appropriate one for themselves to use. The anti itch effect of prickly heat is good. After taking a shower, applying it to the affected area can not only relieve itching and pain, but also promote the disappearance of prickly heat.
Furthermore, pregnant women can also use bitter melon to eliminate prickly heat. Bitter melon has a cold taste and has the effect of clearing heat and reducing inflammation. Pregnant women can crush bitter melon and apply its juice on the prickly heat, or mix the cooked bitter melon with traditional Chinese medicine borax and apply it, which is also very effective in eliminating prickly heat.
Watermelon is a common fruit in summer, and watermelon rind also has a certain effect. It can be used to treat prickly heat. Pregnant women can put watermelon rind in the refrigerator for half an hour, then cover it on prickly heat, two or three times a day, which can make the prickly heat disappear as soon as possible. In addition, pregnant women can also wash the watermelon rind clean and boil it into soup to drink, which has the effect of clearing heat and reducing fire, and is very helpful for the treatment of prickly heat.
