It is no secret that for women, the phrase "skin like a baby" - the highest compliment. And all because that only crumbs of newborn skin really extraordinarily smooth, clean and soft. However, it often happens so that the body suddenly gives a "failure" and this tenderness suddenly becomes dry on the cheeks and the pope have red spots and pryshchichki and under hairs - brown.
In this case, any mother, even to the naked eye detects - a child diathesis! But this is not quite the right name. Properly called this phenomenon atopic dermatitisAnd it is the body's response to being hit by a foreign "agent" - allergen enters the body which, in most cases via food, and air containing allergens, which breathes a pipsqueak, and skin contact grudnichka with different stimuli can also become cause.
If the baby in time to help cope with allergies, it can accompany him throughout his life. But such seemingly innocuous symptoms that signal the problem through the skin, in the future develop into a more serious illness, such as asthma and eczema. Also can begin irreversible changes in the tissues and organs of the child.
To avoid this, it is important not only to recognize the cause and begin treatment, but also to engage in prevention. And should start literally from the time when the baby is still inside the mother. In other words, being in the family way, the woman is obliged to be very careful, especially in your diet (including water) and the air it breathes. Allergy unborn baby can "pick up", if the mother abuses such vysokoallergennymi products such as cow's milk, chocolate, citrus fruits, strawberries, nuts, red fish.
In addition, the emergence of allergies in children can also be affected by:
• genetic predisposition;
• unfavorable environmental conditions;
• smoking during pregnancy;
• intrauterine fetal hypoxia;
• infectious diseases of mother during pregnancy and treatment with antibiotics during this period.
In most cases, a food allergy manifests in the first three years of life, at a time when all its organs are at the stage of "ripening".
The symptoms that accompany a food allergy:
• rash on the body;
• skin peeling, accompanied by itching;
• diaper rash and prickly heat, occurring even with careful hygiene;
• formation of crusts on the scalp and eyebrows;
• frequent regurgitation;
• diarrhea, followed by admixture of the foam and the green or constipation;
• flatulence;
• In severe cases, difficulty breathing with bronchospasm or angioedema;
What if you found a food allergy in a child
• the first necessary step is to conduct a thorough diagnosis of allergy, ie a series of samples with the identification result on a specific allergen the organism reacts;
• must be strictly on a certain period of time to eliminate the allergen from the child's diet, and during lactation and of moms menu;
• If necessary, carry out additional medication prescribed by the doctor-immunologist.
Usually, the first appointed antihistamines, adsorbents, as well as funds from dysbiosis. To the outside the same effect on the skin using special gels, ointments, dusting powders, but the appointed course depends on the type and severity of the disease;
Every child, prone to food allergies, there is a chance to get rid of it forever. In most cases, this occurs at the time of puberty, when the body gets a lot of stress and the immune system is rebuilt, while helping the body to adapt as much as possible. Consequently allergic reactions cease disturb.
Of course, with proper and careful approach to this issue there is a chance that these symptoms of an allergic reaction stop well before adolescence, but, alas, a predisposition to allergies is on the whole a life. That is why I emphasized the need for preventive maintenance and periodic inspection that prevent its exacerbation lifetime. Be vigilant and healthy!
