Don't be afraid of pediatric eczema! Parents must know these massage techniques! Easy relief!
Pediatric eczema, also known as hereditary allergic dermatitis and atopic dermatitis, is a chronic, recurrent, inflammatory skin disease. It is more common than in infancy and extends into childhood and adulthood. With eczema-like rash accompanied by intense itching and recurrent recurrence as clinical features, patients often have obvious "atopy" in themselves or in their families, which seriously affects the quality of life. Mainly due to intolerance or allergy to ingestions, inhalations, or contacts. Children with eczema begin with redness and rash, followed by rough, scaly skin, caressing your child's skin as if you were touching sandpaper. Exposure to heat and dampness can make eczema manifest significantly.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, eczema can be divided into three types: damp-heat type, spleen deficiency type, and blood deficiency type.
