Question
What should be done when a baby develops eczema on their neck, and symptoms worsen during hot weather?
Answer
Hello: For your child’s eczema condition, it is recommended to strengthen personal hygiene care and pay attention to dietary adjustments, which can help improve symptoms. Eczema is usually caused by improper diet and environmental factors, and in most cases, a baby’s eczema has the potential to heal itself. At the same time, it is suggested to use cornstarch powder to alleviate symptoms, and maintain good ventilation indoors to keep the air quality and humidity suitable. During breastfeeding, the diet should be light and avoid spicy, cold, and stimulating foods. In addition, avoid using products containing chemical ingredients on the baby, such as coriander. The baby’s clothing should be washed frequently and ensure that the clothing is loose to avoid overly tight clothing.
