Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has had a series of issues, and I'm very concerned, afraid that the condition will worsen. Please ask, what is the reason for the red eyelids of a newborn? Can it go down?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be blepharitis. Blepharitis can be caused by bacteria, seborrheic dermatitis, or local allergic reactions, and these conditions often coexist. It leads to subacute or chronic inflammation of the eyelid margin, eyelashes, hair follicles, and their glandular tissues. Some traditional Chinese medicine treatments that promote lung function, clear heat, and dispel wind can be used.Hello, your baby's current body temperature falls within the range of low-grade fever, 37.3-38°C. Newborns have underdeveloped body temperature regulation centers and are easily affected by environmental temperature. Overbundling and high ambient temperatures can cause an increase in body temperature. If your baby has no other symptoms and is feeding well, you can temporarily reduce the layers of clothing for physical cooling and wait to see how things develop. However, if your baby remains lethargic and has poor feeding, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
