The skin of a young child is very tender. At the same time, the likelihood of various skin disorders is quite high. Kids often suffer from poor thermoregulation, the water balance of tissues and the protective properties of the skin are also not at their best - they simply did not manage to stabilize. And all because of the peculiarities of the skin structure: sweat glands in infants are denser than in older children and adults, and the number of glands is several times higher. The sweat glands will function normally only by age 7. But the sebaceous glands of newborn crumbs work even too actively, producing a secret in excess. All this contributes to the appearance in the smallest, so-called "milk crusts" (otherwise - seborrheic dermatitis) in the field of the crown, fontanel and forehead.
Stealth Care
But it also happens that it's not just the lack of activity of the sweat and excess - the sebaceous glands. Improper care of the baby often aggravates the situation. What can promote the formation of these familiar to many mothers of crusts?
Overheat
As you know, it leads to increased sweating of the child.
Choose the brand that inspires confidence in you, which will tell you how to remove crusts on the head of a baby (which you yourself or your familiar mummies used with already grown-up crumbs), who underwent the strictest quality control and corresponding clinical trials. In the product for the care of the delicate skin and hair of the baby you should be alerted by too bright color or a sharp smell of shampoo.
As a result, the crusts are compacted. To wash a head krohe it is necessary not more often than two times a week, in an ideal - once a week, and even less often. In this shampoo does not need to be applied twice, as an adult - just one application, and if the baby has only hair instead of hair, then rinse his head with water without shampoo at all.
Allergy
Allergic babies have reduced immunity, so skin manifestations can arise from reaction to lure, shampoo or detergent. Once again, check all the products that you use to care for the baby, as well as reconsider the ration of crumbs - perhaps, it is in it lies the problem? In case of allergy, choosing the means for bathing your child is also better to do together with a doctor.
How to be?
Seborrheic dermatitis is not a disease, but pretending that everything is in order and not to notice this problem is impossible. If your baby does not suffer from allergies, then in order for the dermatitis to recede over time, it is enough to follow the rules of hygiene.
Do not revel in the child, especially indoors. The scalp of the baby's head should breathe, then the sebaceous glands will not produce increased secretion on the mountain, but they will work in their usual mode, gradually reducing the amount of secretion.Make sure that the baby's hair is always dry.
Use only natural shampoos to wash your baby's head and remember that washing your head does not cost more than twice a week.
Comb your child's comb with natural bristles. Entangled hair do not regret, cut, and do not try to untangle them. If the baby's head is too long, in this case, a neat haircut is necessary.
If, despite the execution of all these simple rules, crusts on the crown, fontanel and forehead of the child become too hard, the baby's head itches, - consult a doctor. He will help to find out the cause of what is happening and prescribe the treatment.
We do not delete, but ...
There is no need for immediate removal of parietal crusts.
