Home Remedies for Baby Eczema
If your baby is experiencing eczema, you know how uncomfortable it can be with its itching, dryness, and sore spots. Eczema often comes with sensitive skin, making treatment a challenge. Fortunately, there are several home remedies you can try to ease your baby's discomfort.
Moisturize
The first step in treating eczema is to keep your baby's skin well-moisturized. Use a natural aloe vera lotion multiple times a day, especially after bathing your baby. Reapply as needed to prevent dryness. Avoid harsh cleansers, and ensure your baby stays well-hydrated from the inside out. Interestingly, breastfed babies often experience fewer and milder eczema episodes.
Oatmeal Bath
An oatmeal bath can be very soothing when your baby's skin is itchy. Grind two cups of oats into a powder using a food processor or coffee grinder. Add the oatmeal powder to a warm (not hot) bath and stir well. Let your baby soak for 15 minutes, rinse with clean water, and gently pat the skin dry with a soft towel. During severe eczema flare-ups, an oatmeal bath can be given twice daily for relief.
Natural Skin Wash
Avoid harsh skin care products for your baby. This natural skin wash can help with itching. Combine 1 teaspoon each of comfrey root, white oak bark, and slippery elm bark with two cups of water. Mix well, then bring to a boil over medium heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Allow it to cool, strain out the solids, and use the liquid as a gentle cleanser. While it may not completely clear up eczema, it effectively reduces itching and inflammation.
Healing Lotions
To speed up healing during eczema flare-ups, use lotions that moisturize and protect the skin. Look for products containing blueberry leaves, which effectively relieve inflammation and irritation. Zinc is another beneficial ingredient; apply zinc lotion directly to affected areas or consider a zinc supplement in pill form. Regular use can help manage eczema.
For added healing, use a lotion with vitamin E or apply vitamin E oil directly to the affected areas. It quickly reduces itching and aids in healing. Continue application until the skin is healed.
