Patient's question:
Hello expert! Our baby is now one year old. Can we use sandalwood essence pillow (or sandalwood wood pillow)? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
It is okay. The height of a one-year-old baby's pillow should be around 5 cm, and the length should be the same as the baby's shoulder width. The pillowcase is best made of soft white or light-colored cotton fabric. The pillow filling should be soft, lightweight, breathable, moisture-absorbent, evenly firm, and of moderate thickness. Choosing absorbent baby pillows like buckwheat pillows, lavender pillows, tea pillows, and cassia pillows is a good idea.Suggestions: The pillow filling should be frequently exposed to sunlight, and the pillowcase should be washed and replaced often. Because babies have a high metabolism and tend to sweat a lot on their heads, sweat and scalp flakes can easily adhere to the pillow surface, making it prone to harmful microorganisms. This can easily trigger facial eczema and scalp infections.
