Baby's skin is very delicate and is particularly susceptible to external stimuli and influences. Babies sweat a lot and love to have prickly heat in summer. At this time, red rashes will appear on the skin, and most of them will also be accompanied by symptoms of itching. So, what should I do if my child has heat rash and itching?
If a child has a hot and itchy rash, they can apply some talcum powder or rash powder to relieve itching and slow down the development of the rash. If there is no significant effect on children after applying talcum powder or prickly ash powder, they can use some anti itch ointment.
When a child has heat rash, parents should keep the child away from high temperature environments or find ways to lower the ambient temperature. Everyone can turn on the air conditioner or fan, but the temperature should be controlled well and the child should not be blown directly to avoid catching a cold. It is also necessary to reduce children's clothing appropriately, wearing only a small bellyband in summer, but choose pure cotton clothing, which is more conducive to sweat absorption and breathability.
For babies with prickly heat, it is advisable to keep their skin clean and fresh as much as possible. It is best to take a warm shower when the child is sweating and sticky. You can give your child more baths every day, especially before going to bed, which must be cleaned. Everyone should pay attention that the water temperature when bathing children should not be too hot, otherwise it will worsen the itching.
