What are the causes of baby eczema?

Eczema is a common skin disease. In summer, the weather is sultry, and the growth of skin bacteria is more serious, so it is very easy to get eczema. Adult eczema is particularly uncomfortable, not to mention babies? Then we need to know how eczema develops, and what preventive knowledge do we have?

Is the cause of eczema genetic in the first place?

Generally speaking, if the baby's parents or family elders have allergic diseases, then the baby is more likely to suffer from allergic diseases and eczema.

Infants with gastrointestinal dysfunction

When the gastrointestinal tract is dysfunctional, food cannot be fully digested and decomposed. Children who eat a lot of high-protein products are not easy to absorb, leading to eczema. Therefore, if children eat too much protein food, eczema will recur or worsen when they catch a cold, and cold or diarrhea will affect gastrointestinal function. Asthma can also aggravate eczema recurrence, or vaccination can also aggravate eczema recurrence. Infants aged 0-6 months have poor digestion and absorption ability, weak gastrointestinal defense ability and are prone to food allergies.

environmental factor

Indoor temperature and humidity have certain influence on infantile eczema. At home, you should always open the window to ventilate, so as to avoid causing humid or overheated air. In winter, some hemp dries or dries baby clothes, which makes the air moist and increases the incidence of infantile eczema.

A number of surveys show that infants with eczema in cities are more than twice as likely as those in rural areas. Because the temperature and humidity in rural areas are lower than those in cities. Therefore, induced factors are avoided.

Biochemical factors

Some families like to grow some flowers and keep some small animals. But I don't know that this may be an important cause of infantile eczema. The baby has poor physical resistance and delicate skin. However, pollen and animal hair can quickly damage the baby's skin. It is a factor that induces eczema, as well as some soaps, chemical fibers and washing products. It may cause harm to the baby.

Other factors

In addition to the above common factors, there are many factors such as drug allergy, bacterial infection, virus infection and reinfection. For babies who already have eczema, it is necessary to prevent scratching and avoid secondary infection. In summer, the baby should stay in a ventilated and cool environment to avoid the recurrence of eczema caused by sweating.

After the baby suffers from eczema, we must find the corresponding methods and don't blindly use various drugs.
