Babies will have bad mouths in winter. What's going on here?

In fact, the baby's "rotten mouth" in winter is clinically called "angular stomatitis", which is not only caused by dry weather, but also caused by mothers. Let's share with you how the baby's mouth will rot in winter.

First, the lip mucosa is cracked and the weather is dry in winter. If you neglect the moisturizing and replenishing of skin and lip mucosa, your mouth will feel dry. Some children like to lick with their tongues, and their mouths are getting drier and drier. If the lips are dry and peeling, children like to tear them by hand. As a result, the more they tear their lips, the more they lose their skins and even lead to feelings.

When the weather is dry, besides moisturizing and hydrating the skin, moisturizing and hydrating the lips can not be ignored. You can apply some lip balm to your child in moderation. When the lips are dry, ask the child to drink more water and correct the bad habit that the child likes to lick his mouth with his tongue.

Second, nutritional deficiency angular stomatitis caused by vitamin B deficiency is mostly manifested in symmetrical squab skin chapped, accompanied by gastric ulcer or chylous disorder.

Pay attention to eat more colorful ingredients containing B vitamins in the diet, such as carrots, eggs, liver, lean pork and so on. More serious, you can use some B vitamins under the guidance of a doctor.

Third, there are many kinds of microbial strains. In normal times, if saliva keeps overflowing from the mouth, it will play a special role in the breeding of pathogenic bacteria, which is very likely to cause angular stomatitis. Acute symptoms can be manifested as swelling of the corners of the mouth, or bleeding and ulceration, which is easy to produce dry scab and obvious pain. In the chronic stage, the main manifestations are cracks in the corners of the mouth, thickening of the surrounding skin mucosa, gloomy color and no obvious pain.

For angular stomatitis caused by this kind of microbial strains, besides paying attention to hygiene, don't use drugs indiscriminately after the onset. It is necessary for doctors to diagnose which kind of microbial strains they belong to before giving targeted drugs.

Fourth, the root cause of contact angular stomatitis is due to contact with certain skin allergic chemicals, which leads to swelling and disorder of the mouth and lips, accompanied by obvious pain, and the onset speed is usually very fast.

All in all, when a child suffers from angular stomatitis, parents must take medicine in a hurry, and don't simply think that hydrating and moisturizing can cure it. The best choice is to seek the help of a doctor, find the cause of angular stomatitis, and then "prescribe the right medicine" to make the child's mouth get better as soon as possible.
