Can babies with eczema be vaccinated? Can babies with eczema be bathed?

Infant eczema is a common phenomenon, mostly caused by genetics. If the baby's skin is too dry, he or she will suffer from eczema. We also need to take good care of babies with eczema. So can babies with eczema be vaccinated? Can babies with eczema take a bath?

1. Try not to vaccinate your baby when he/she has eczema, because eczema is an allergic reaction of the baby's skin. In other words, the baby's body is allergic, and vaccination at this time may aggravate the baby's allergy. Therefore, mothers should not take their babies to get vaccinated when they have eczema.

2. Not only for babies with eczema, mothers should not take their children to get vaccinated when they have a cold or fever. Some vaccines will cause adverse reactions in babies, such as fever and diarrhea. When the child's physical condition is not good, vaccination will only make the situation worse.

3. Do not take your child to get vaccinated while the baby is taking medicine. If the mother has given the child medicine for illness, the child cannot be vaccinated during the medication period. Because the vaccine drugs may react chemically with the drugs the baby is taking, these reactions will have a great impact on the baby's health, so mothers must pay attention.

If the baby has eczema, it is usually okay to take a bath. However, if the eczema is accompanied by obvious exudative reactions, and is accompanied by obvious scabs and local redness and swelling reactions, try to avoid using local toiletries, such as soap, shower gel, etc. Try to reduce the frequency of bathing, because frequent contact with water or bathing may cause local capillary dilation, thereby aggravating the symptoms of eczema. If the baby's eczema is not too obvious or chronic eczema, it is completely okay to take a bath. When bathing, just pay attention to avoid alkaline toiletries as much as possible, or do not take a bath for too long, which can minimize the impact of bathing on the baby's eczema. Skin diseases in the human body are all detoxification phenomena of the human body. Using warm water to bathe can promote the dilation of the human body's capillaries, open the sweat glands of the skin as soon as possible, which is conducive to sweating and heat dissipation, and can accelerate the excretion of metabolites and toxins in the body, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease. Therefore, it is okay to take a bath.

Calamine can be used externally for infant eczema. The main characteristics of its external rash are the appearance of erythema and papules without erosion and exudation. It should be used externally twice a day. While applying calamine lotion externally, a certain amount of antihistamines should be taken orally, such as levocetirizine hydrochloride tablets, or desloratadine dry suspension, or loratadine syrup, as well as oral glycyrrhizin preparations, such as compound glycyrrhizin tablets, etc. It can also be combined with a certain amount of weak glucocorticoid ointment, such as hydrocortisone cream or hydrocortisone butyrate cream. In addition, infants should avoid contact with spicy and irritating foods, such as beef, mutton, seafood and other hair-raising foods, and should not take hot water baths, or scrub or rub vigorously.

The cause of baby eczema is often related to various allergic factors. It may be that the baby has eaten some food or has come into contact with some food, or the child himself has an allergic constitution. However, it is not recommended to use Bactroban ointment for the treatment of eczema, because Bactroban is an antibiotic ointment. If the child's eczema is relatively mild, it can be effectively relieved with just a skin moisturizer. If the skin eczema is more serious, glucocorticoid ointment can be used for external application. If the child's eczema is very serious and has bacterial infection, Bactroban ointment can be used for combined treatment, but external application of Bactroban ointment is not the primary treatment option.
