Children with prickly heat can be relieved by general treatment, topical medication and oral medication.
1. General treatment: children’s prickly heat is mostly caused by the hot and humid environment in summer or the lack of breathable clothes, which leads to the blockage of sweat ducts. It can be relieved by keeping the indoor temperature suitable, the skin cool and dry, the clothes loose and breathable, and changing the clothes diligently.
2. Topical medication: When the symptoms of prickly heat are not obvious, you can usually use topical medication to treat it, such as glycerin lotion and hydrocortisone cream.
3. Oral medication: If your child’s prickly heat is severely itchy and uncomfortable, you can take oral antihistamines to improve the condition, such as loratadine syrup and cetirizine drops, etc. If you need to take medication, you should consult your doctor.
If you need to use drugs, should be used under the guidance of a doctor, do not use drugs without authorization, so as not to cause adverse consequences.
