Tips for preventing miliaria in summer

In hot summer, prickly heat is one of the common skin problems of babies. In order to keep the baby away from prickly heat, we need to pay attention to the following preventive measures.

Keep cool and ventilated.

As miliaria occurs in high temperature and high humidity environment, the way to prevent miliaria is to keep cool and ventilated conditions. You shouldn't ignore the following details.

Wear loose and breathable clothes.

Baby's clothes should be loose, sweat-absorbent and breathable, and avoid wearing too tight or chemical fiber underwear.

You can apply prickly heat powder after bathing.

Bathing every day When the weather is hot, you can even bathe your baby two or three times a day to keep your skin clean. Dry the skin after bathing, especially the wrinkles, and apply a thin layer of prickly heat powder to prevent the occurrence of prickly heat.

Maintain indoor air circulation

When the temperature is too high, air conditioning can be used to lower the room temperature, but the air conditioning temperature should not be too low, and it is appropriate to be around 28℃.

Don't wipe your sweat with a cold towel.

Suddenly moving the baby from a hot and sweaty environment to a cold environment or wiping the sweat with a cold towel will suddenly block the originally opened sweat pores, leading to sweat retention, which will easily lead to miliaria or aggravate the original miliaria.

Drink plenty of water

In hot summer, we must pay attention to the supplement of water. In addition to cool white, you can also give children mung bean soup, honeysuckle water, or take it with boiled water of mung beans and fresh lotus leaves. We can also eat some fresh fruits and vegetables, such as watermelons, to help relieve summer heat and cool down, but we should not drink more cold drinks.

Avoid the sun

Avoid staying in high temperature environment for a long time. When going out, it is best to avoid the period when the sun is strongest and let the children play in the shade.
