Your little one’s red and irritated skin must make you really worried, right? Skin allergies in babies are common, especially in the diaper area.
This condition can make the baby fussy and uncomfortable throughout the day.
But rest assured, by understanding the causes of skin allergies and how to choose the right diapers, you can protect your little one’s sensitive skin from irritation and painful rashes.
Get to know the main causes of skin allergies in infants
Baby’s skin allergies can be triggered by various factors.
The most common cause is prolonged contact with urine and feces which irritates the skin.
In addition, diaper materials that contain artificial fragrances or harmful chemicals can also trigger allergic reactions on your little one’s sensitive skin.
The friction of diapers that are too tight is also one of the often overlooked causes of this allergy.
Excessive moisture in diaper-covered areas creates an ideal environment for bacterial and fungal growth.
A baby’s still-developing immune system makes it more susceptible to various allergens.
Genetic factors such as parental history of allergies also play a role in increasing the risk of these allergies.
Even changes in diet or milk composition can affect the baby’s skin condition.
Skin allergy symptoms you should be aware of
Symptoms of skin allergies in infants usually present with fairly obvious signs.
Redness in the buttocks, thigh crease and genital area are the main indicators.
The skin will feel warm to the touch and red spots will appear that may spread to surrounding areas.
Scaly or peeling skin also indicates irritation. Sometimes small fluid-filled bumps appear that can burst and cause sores.
Babies become fussy, especially during diaper changes because they feel sore and uncomfortable.
A severe diaper rash usually makes the baby cry when cleaned or bathed.
It is important to consult a doctor immediately if symptoms do not improve within 2-3 days.
Guide to choosing diapers that are safe for sensitive skin
Choosing safe diapers for sensitive skin requires special attention to several important criteria.
First, make sure that the diapers use hypoallergenic materials that are free from artificial fragrances and harmful chemicals.
Materials that are gentle and do not irritate the skin are a top priority.
Avoid diapers with excessive dioxin or chlorine content that can trigger allergic reactions. Advanced absorption technology should also be considered.
Look for diapers that are fast absorbing to keep the skin dry and have a good air circulation system.
Make sure that the diaper does not clump easily when exposed to liquids as it can create a rough texture that irritates the skin.
An ergonomic design with a snug fit – not too tight or loose – will reduce excessive friction.
A comfortable elastic waistband that leaves no marks and a soft surface that reduces friction are other important factors.
Tip: Always try new diapers in a small package first to see how baby’s skin reacts.
Baby Skin Care Tips to Prevent Allergies
Proper baby skin care is essential to prevent skin allergies.
Change diapers every 2-3 hours or immediately when wet/dirty to avoid prolonged contact with liquids.
Clean the diaper area with warm water and dry gently with a clean towel.
Allow 10-15 minutes of “diaper-free” time every day to let the skin breathe.
Use a zinc oxide protective cream if needed, especially when the skin starts to show redness.
Choose pH-balanced soaps and care products to maintain the natural balance of baby’s skin. Avoid using excessive powder as it can clog pores and trigger irritation.
Always wash your hands before and after changing diapers to prevent bacterial transfer.
Pay attention to the diet of breastfeeding mothers as certain foods can affect the baby’s skin condition through breast milk.
