So, why do children get prickly heat easily in summer? How to prevent it?

What is prickly heat? Rash, also known as "heat rash" in medicine, is caused by excessive sweating and poor evaporation of sweat, which leads to blockage and rupture of sweat tubes and sweat oozing into tissues around the skin.

The shape of prickly heat is mostly small papules and blisters, which are mainly caused by sultry heat and are prone to occur in summer. The reason why the baby is prone to develop prickly heat is that the baby's metabolism is fast and active, and the hot weather in summer causes the body to secrete a lot of sweat. Many parents do not wipe the sweat on the baby in time, which causes the sweat on the baby to block the pores and stimulate the baby's delicate skin, leading to a sharp increase in prickly heat growth.

In addition, it is the baby's active performance in daily life. He became interested when he saw something. When he touched it, he crawled around on the ground, and it was easy to attach dirty dust, so he was infected with a lot of bacteria, which made it easier to block sweat ducts and induce a sharp increase in rash.

Therefore, in the hot summer, we must always pay attention to the baby's situation, prepare towels to wipe the baby's sweat, and the most important thing is to keep the baby in a dry and comfortable environment.

How to effectively prevent miliaria? 1. Keep the room ventilated and comfortable: At ordinary times, mothers should always ventilate the room, especially the baby's room, keep the room cool and avoid excessive indoor temperature. Adjust it with air conditioner if possible.

2. Change clothes frequently: In midsummer, be extra cautious about your baby's clothes, preferably cotton, soft, breathable and loose clothes, and change them in time. At the same time, buy high-quality, breathable diapers and observe whether there are red spots on your child's little ass at any time. Only diapers with good heat dissipation and soft cotton can effectively prevent the occurrence of heat rash.

3, often take a bath: children sweat more, it is easier to induce prickly heat, it is recommended that mother often wipe his sweat, wash the child with warm water more than 2 times a day. After each bath, clean the baby and apply a proper amount of talcum powder to the wrinkled parts to make the body fresh and dry.
