Question
Why is the palm of the baby’s finger red and the palm of the hand often sweaty? Is it due to heat or other reasons? What should be done?
Answer
It should be a case of ingrown nail. If it’s not too severe, it’s recommended to pay attention to hand hygiene and provide the baby with a separate nail clipper, avoiding cutting too deeply. It’s also suggested to disinfect the child and pay extra attention to prevent infection. Observe for a period of time and if it persists, it’s advisable to seek medical treatment to determine if surgery or medication is required. Always pay close attention to the child’s diet and other physical issues daily. I hope this explanation is helpful to you.
