Atopic dermatitis usually develops in early childhood and is more common in people who have a family history.
Symptoms: The main symptom is rash that typically appears on the chicks, elbow, knee but can also appear anywhere.
Skin: Rashes, dryness, redness, bumps. These are symptoms of atopic dermatitis.
My kid was detected with this in early age like he was of 5 months at that time we went to many pediatrics but no results it was coming again & again and they were saying that will go as per age. Then when we tried to go to dermatologist and he said that it is a kind of eczema it also happens in kids due deficiency of Vitamin A. And he suggested for some chewable tablets of Vitamin A and it actually worked like miracle. On 4 th day the allergy was almost 2% left.
Not getting enough of vitamin A can be to blame for the development of eczema and other skin problems. In one of 12 weeks study people with chronic eczema who took 10 - 40 mg of alittetinoin per day experienced up to 53% reduction in their symptoms.
Keep in mind that dry skin can have many causes, but Vitamin A deficiency can be the reason. Rather than this there are many does & don'ts which we have to follow for this kind of sensitive skin. Following are some
Do's & Don't
1. Keep the skin moisturized. And use a skin suitable body wash no soap. For my kids skin I tried many body wash but was not successful. Lately I tried a full range of SebaMed and I was truly satisfied they keep up the pH level of skin and prevent it from becoming dry & irritated.
2. Never use a perfume or deodorant when the clothes are wear. If they are very much obsessed by perfumes after seeing there fathers applying them then apply the perfume first on clothes and then make them wear. Even in market we are getting special kids perfume do buy it. Following is one which I am using for my son.
3. Don't wash their clothes with ours. Wash their clothes separately. And don't use detergent in it. Wash their clothes with a specific liquid soap which are specifically made for children's clothes there are few available in market. I am using the Mee Mee liquid soap.
4. Never take them outside without a mask that is observed by me that he has allergies from dust, smoke, strong smells etc. So I prefer him to take in car or in two wheel then him wear a mask. Even don't use a dettol or savlon in there clothes the smell also irritates them. Even my dermatologist suggested me this things while interrogating with me about his condition.
5. Special care must be taken of him when the season changes. Should extra moisturize them should give them haldi & honey twice a day to boost there immunity. Because whenever the season changes his skin becomes dry and tendency of getting cold & cough also increases.
6. Keep them up with foods which contains Vitamin A such as all the red, green vegetables. Such as carrot, all the type of capsicum, spinach, broccoli, tomato juice, sweet potatoes. Also dairy products, mango, & dried apricots.
That's all from my hope you people like the article & it may be useful for you.
