What should be done about baby eczema?

Patient's question:

It is a very common chronic skin disease, but it is not contagious. What should I do if eczema appears on my neck and worsens in hot weather?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Pay attention to personal hygiene care for your child, and the diet should improve. Eczema is generally caused by improper diet and environmental factors. Most babies' eczema can heal on its own. It is also recommended to apply some talcum powder to relieve symptoms.
Make sure the room is well-ventilated and the air quality is good. The temperature and humidity should be normal! Additionally, it is advised that breastfeeding mothers follow a light diet and avoid spicy, cold, or irritating foods. Do not use products containing chemical ingredients for your baby, such as coriander.
Change your baby's clothes frequently and ensure they are loose. Avoid tight-fitting clothing.
