Let's take a closer look at each of the types of rashes.
Toxic erythema. It looks like small red nodules or specks with white heads or without them. Such a rash usually lasts for a short time - literally the first few days of a newborn's life and passes by itself. After the disappearance of toxic erythema, the scalp can remain on the baby's skin. They are easy to overcome with the help of trays of chamomile or string.
It is not necessary to be afraid of such rashes at all. The fact is that when a child takes his first breath, all his organs begin their work in new conditions, different from the environment in the mother's tummy. Organs of the baby seem to be "included" in the work. It happens that any of the organs may be late a little with "inclusion". This explains the appearance on the skin of a baby of toxic erythema.
The pottery. It looks like small transparent blisters or tiny red pimples. There is a sweat as a result of overheating and excessive "kutaniya" crumbs. Therefore, in order to avoid such rashes, more often arrange a baby shower and do not wrap it. Potnikku can be eliminated by making the baby a tray with a turn.
Allergic rash . This rash differs from others in that it occurs more often literally within a few hours after the product-allergen has been taken. Nursing mother should closely monitor the reaction of the baby's body to all new products (this also applies to the time when the lure begins). If a rash develops on a product in a crumb, then it should be excluded from the diet. Within two or three days, the allergic rash will go away by itself. If the youngster is very concerned about burning and itching in the areas of the rash, then this condition can be alleviated with the help of cool compresses on troubling places.
Rash for infection. Scarlet fever. With scarlet fever, the rash is the most important sign of the disease. Such a rash is very thin and feels something like sandpaper. Eruptions appear on the neck and in the armpits, on the inner surface of the hips and in the groin, then on the back, chest, legs and hands. The rash does not cause itching, but it keeps from two to three days to five or seven. After it disappears, another three weeks (and in some severe cases - as many as eight) the skin on the body is peeled and separated in the form of scales, flakes or plates. Before the appearance of rashes, there is usually a very sharp and severe fever, redness of the tonsils, which are often covered with plaque, sharp pains in the throat.
Measles . A distinctive feature of measles is the appearance at the outset of the disease whitish elevations with a red border around the inner surface of the cheeks. Then the rash begins to appear behind the ears and in the central part of the child's face. Approximately on the third day of the disease, rashes cover the entire body. And if in the beginning the rash is similar to a lot of pink tubercles, surrounded by a red border, then soon all these tubercles merge into one large spot. Other signs of measles are sneezing, runny nose, cough, fever, lacrimation, photophobia.
Rubella. Rubella is characterized by the appearance of a sufficiently large rash. First, it appears behind the ears and on the face, and literally in a few hours spreads throughout the body. However, the main places of its localization are buttocks and stomach, sometimes legs. With rubella, the temperature usually rises to 38 ° C. Also, tenderness and swelling of the lymph nodes are possible.
