Prickly heat is mainly a local treatment. It can be treated externally with cool powder such as prickly heat powder, or with cool anti-itch lotion such as 1% peppermint glycopyrite lotion, 1% peppermint tincture; pustular prickly heat can be treated externally with 2% ichthyol glycopyrite lotion, yellow lily powder. When itching is obvious, oral antihistamines can be taken, and antibiotics can be used for pustular prickly heat infection. Here, we need to remind you that you should not use prickly heat powder after the skin has ulcerated; don’t confuse adult and child use because adult prickly heat powder generally contains boric acid, while in pediatric prickly heat powder is prohibited to put boric acid. In addition, the doses of drugs contained in adult and pediatric prickly heat powder are different, so children should purchase prickly heat powder specifically for children. If your child has applied prickly heat powder to his or her hands, he or she will always lick it into his or her mouth without paying attention, and the mother will worry about the impact on her child’s health. Here, mention a company that was previously fired up about the “powder incident”. China Fragrance, Flavor and Cosmetics Industry Association made a statement on this. The association said that talc is often used in cosmetics as lubricant absorbent, filler, anti-caking agent, shading agent, etc. It is widely used in various cosmetics, especially powder cosmetics. However, because talcum powder raw materials will be accompanied by asbestos-like impurities, and asbestos is carcinogenic, due to the need to strictly control the asbestos content in cosmetics. The former State Food and Drug Administration issued relevant regulations to regulate the powdered cosmetics and their raw materials in the determination of asbestos, and requires that any application for special purpose cosmetics health administrative license or non-special purpose cosmetics for the record of products whose formulations contain talcum powder raw materials, the reporting unit in the product declaration or filing in, should be submitted to the product in the asbestos impurities test report. National standard “talc” (GB/T15342-2012) in the “cosmetic talc” also requires “asbestos minerals” “shall not be detected”. The Hygienic Standard for Cosmetics (2007 edition) and the Technical Specification for Cosmetic Safety (2015 edition) both list talc as a restricted component of cosmetics that can be used in “powdered products and other products used by children under 3 years of age” and stipulate that when used in “powdered products used by children under 3 years of age When used in powdered products for children under the age of 3, the label must be marked “Keep powder away from children’s nose and mouth”. Therefore, you should be assured that regular talcum powder and prickly heat powder have passed the national cosmetic safety inspection and are mild and safe, not toxic. If you are really worried, parents can also try to choose to gently apply a little on the hands when the child is asleep. In addition, you can also locally smear some corn starch and other edible dry powder on your hands instead of prickly heat powder, both to keep the local dry, the child accidentally ingested will not affect health.
