Infants with prickly heat can use topical medications such as glycerin lotion and Dinhydrin cream.
When the weather is hot, the human body sweats more easily, and when the sweat cannot be discharged in time, it will cause inflammation of the skin, resulting in prickly heat. Generally, if you leave the hot environment and keep your skin cool, prickly heat will subside on its own. You can also use medication, such as glycerine lotion to stop the itching, and Dinaid cream to control the inflammation, but note that you should not apply the medicine for a long time, and use it as prescribed by your doctor.
If the skin damage is more serious and bacterial infection occurs, you can also use erythromycin, clindamycin and other drugs for treatment. Babies should be prevented from scratching the skin to avoid infection. Please follow your doctor’s instructions.
