Take care of baby's skin when bitten by mosquitoes (QC)
Nothing fragrant, soft like baby skin, but because of this, children are always the favorite "bait" of the nasty mosquitoes. So what should mom do when these animals make marks on the baby's skin?
After a period of stay, both mother and baby like to walk outside to enjoy the fresh air and relax spiritually and get rid of the narrow walls. Both the mother and the ticket find a lot of fun at the local park or the public amusement park. And here are the mosquitoes that live the most and babies can be bitten at any time.
Dr Natalie Epton, a Singapore-based pediatrician, said it is most important to take your baby out to avoid mosquito bites to avoid dengue outbreaks. Here are some notes you need to remember:
Avoid "hot" spots of dengue fever, and dress your baby in bright colors. Don't forget to use repellent when going out.
Although there are many natural mosquito repellents, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends pain reliever for infants as young as 3 months old.
If you travel far, do not forget to bring personal first aid tools and mosquito repellent for babies. Consult your doctor for the best advice.
If the child is bitten by a mosquito and the baby is old enough to understand scratching doesn't work, the scratches just make the child more uncomfortable, you should teach them that right away. Also apply an anti-itch cream like calamine lotion, or even a low-dose steroid cream like Hydrocortisone. The oils may be too strong to use on young children.
