Discover a Natural Treatment For Baby Eczema
By Nicole Haas
It can be discouraging once your baby has been diagnosed with eczema. After all, we want them to be comfortable and healthy. It may leave us with questions like, “What should I use to curb the itch?” and “What is safe for a baby’s delicate skin?”
The most common type of baby eczema, Atopic Dermatitis, is a universal skin disorder related to allergies and asthma. Children with parents that suffer from allergies and asthma are more likely to develop Atopic Dermatitis.
Atopic Dermatitis breaks down the protective barrier of the skin. Therefore, potentially dangerous chemicals are more readily absorbed into the body through effected areas. This is further confirmation that using a natural treatment for eczema, meaning one without synthetic chemicals is of vital importance.
Fortunately, there are many natural moisturizing substances. Not only do they aid in moisturizing the skin, but often they help to repair tissue damage and reduce inflammation.
- Some natural treatments for eczema… Olive Oil – used alone or in a lotion, highly moisturizing
- Chamomile – reduces inflammation, aids in tissue regeneration
- Aloe Vera – helps cellular repair, reduces inflammation, relieves pain
- Calendula – aids in repairing tissue damage, reduces inflammation
Natural substances should be gentle and work with your baby’s skin to help relieve eczema conditions. Many of these are found in various lotions and skin healing balms. (Please note: skin can react negatively to natural ingredients. It is always advised to do a “patch test” on healthy skin first.)
The problem is that too often they are mixed in with undesirable, even potentially harmful ingredients. Some are known to be toxic. Others are so strong or thick they render any healing ingredient useless.
- Avoid these if possible… Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) – This is a very common substance found in shampoos, soaps and even bubble baths! SLS is a harsh detergent and known to further weaken the skin barrier. Look for “detergent free” soaps and shampoos.
- Artificial Colors and Fragrances – These simply are not needed and may be toxic.
- Parabens – These are common and cheap preservatives. They’ve been implicated in the rise of certain cancers and should be avoided.
- Propylene Glycol – Considered toxic.
- Isopropyl Alcohol – This is very drying on the skin. Beware of any ingredient labeled with “Isopropyl” next to it.
- Petroleum Jelly- This is an old “remedy” for baby eczema. Petroleum jelly is so thick that it smothers skin. Leaving it unable to breathe and heal on its own. It is not known to be an effective moisturizer.
Buying a 100% USDA Organic skin care product will eliminate any chance of these synthetic chemicals being introduced to your little one. However, it is not always possible to buy 100% Organic.
Therefore, by using the above information as a guide, you will be able to pick a natural treatment for eczema. It should ease itching and inflammation while giving your little one’s skin a chance to repair itself.
