Diathesis in children

The nature of this state is not fully understood.But it has been established that if relatives of a baby suffer from allergic diseases, then he is also highly likely to get sick. Therefore, heredity is the main cause of diathesis in infants.

Diathesis in children always has a trigger,which starts working long before they are born. Eating disorders of a pregnant woman, toxicosis and medication provoke the development of diathesis after the birth of a baby.

Diathesis in a newborn baby is formed underexposure to adverse environmental factors such as dust, indoor pollen, pet dander, feeding the nursing mother with products containing allergens. For older children, the main reason for the formation of diathesis is the reaction to the input of supplementary foods, to new foods.

Manages diathesis in infants more oftenjust in the form of exudative-katalnyh phenomena. The baby appears red and peeling in the area of ​​the cheeks, eyebrows, knees and butts, yellow seborrheic crusts on the head. But it can also manifest itself as an increase in lymph nodes, in the form of diaper rash or frequent colds.

The main mistake of parents is that theybegin to treat the outside of the diathesis, without eliminating its cause. Appeal to a dermatologist and use ointments, are treated by an ENT doctor, and inhalation and physiotherapy are performed.

It is necessary to take a comprehensive approach to treatment, notself-medicate, and accurately follow the advice and recommendations of the pediatrician on the use of drugs and herbal. After all, herbs for young children themselves are powerful allergens.

Carefully and alternately use new ones.products. Do not go to extremes and eliminate healthy foods from the diet. The bulk of them in a small amount never causes an allergic reaction, in contrast to their excess. Children do not develop diathesis on cow's milk or eggs, strawberries, or chocolate, but on their misuse.

When parents overfeed children,they untimely begin to introduce a new product, hurry and begin to mistakenly assume that their child is allergic to all these listed products at once. In practice, everything works individually, and, if there is an allergy, then only one of the food.

You can not panic and, whensmall crusts of gray-yellow color on the hair and eyebrows of the baby, begin to apply potent ointment. It is enough to use vegetable oil to lubricate the baby’s head and comb to comb out gradually the seborrheic crusts. That is enough ordinary hygienic care for the baby.

Диатез у детей может вызывать банальная грязь.That is why it is so important to comply with hygiene standards: to carry out wet cleaning of the room, regular airing and take walks in the fresh air. It is necessary to take care of children's skin, and not to lubricate it with hormonal ointments.

Diathesis in a child whose treatment mustcarry out only a doctor, can pass with age without a trace. To facilitate the well-being of small children, you can bathe in the broth of the string or the leaves of the nut. It relieves itching, but dries the skin of children. Baby skin is made velvety and smooth starch baths and lotions. Nursing mothers should not refuse at all, but only to limit the intake of certain foods in case of signs of an allergic reaction in an infant.

It is important not to remove the skin manifestations that catch the eye, but to find out the cause and cure the diathesis, so that it does not turn into a persistent allergic disease. For this you need:

  • examine children with frequent colds;
  • monitor their response to external allergens (dust, food, cold);
  • keep diary entries;
  • consult with your pediatrician about the vaccination plan (receive medotvod or postpone the timeline).

Remember that vaccinations often provoke increased signs of diathesis and weaken the immune forces of the child.
