Babies with measles can bathe if the skin has not broken; bathing is generally not recommended if skin breakdown has occurred.
If the hives on the baby’s skin have not broken, pus, and no liquid oozing out, you can usually take a bath. However, you should pay attention to the temperature of the water when bathing, avoiding too cold or too hot, and at the same time avoiding cold and flu.
However, if the measles are more, and there are broken, pus, redness, etc., generally do not recommend bathing; you can directly with a towel dipped in water, and then gently wipe. Because touching water in this case, it can not be ruled out that it will cause secondary infection, which is not conducive to the recovery of the wound, and may lead to the extent of the damage to be aggravated.
If the baby’s measles is more extensive and has skin lesions, cleaning and care should be carried out under the guidance of a professional physician, so as not to affect the recovery by improper operation. If the measles caused by generalized fever, fever and other conditions, should also be targeted treatment.
