Question

A 4-month-old daughter recently developed red pimples on her face, originally confined to a small area but then suddenly spread across her entire face. There are no discomforts, but the appearance is concerning. How should these red pimples be eliminated?

Answer

Hello! The red pimples on the baby’s face could be eczema. It is recommended to avoid overfeeding to prevent indigestion. If you are allergic to certain foods, you can gradually introduce small amounts to allow the baby to adapt. When eating eggs, try to consume the yolk alone rather than the white. If necessary, use plant-based protein products. If the baby is being breastfed, the mother should avoid eating fish, shrimp, crab, eggs, and spicy foods, as well as alcohol. Of course, the mother’s other dietary habits should also be observed appropriately; not all foods are off-limits. If the baby does not show allergic symptoms due to food intake, they can continue to be consumed to ensure the nutrition of both the child and the mother.
