Diagnosis: Psoriasis

I am very sorry to hear your baby has psoriasis. You are likely looking for an effective baby psoriasis treatment, just as any good parent in your circumstances would be.

Naturally, you want your pediatrician to see your baby, and that is always your first step. Talk with your baby’s doctor about the natural baby psoriasis treatments you would like to try.

Natural treatments? Yes. Remember, you are not alone! Thousands of others who have had babies with psoriasis have had great success with natural baby psoriasis treatments they can do right at home with no apprehension about negative side effects..

To start, when your baby has a flare-up of psoriasis, start by applying a cold compress. Apply it precisely to the effected area, tenderly allowing it to soothe your baby and add moisture to hers skin.

Once you feel you have soothed the area, lightly rub on an unscented moisturizer while the skin is still damp. This will keep the skin moist which is an important part of the natural baby psoriasis treatment.

Some pediatricians recommend daily baths, while many of their colleagues opt for every other day bathings. The important thing is not to dry your baby’s skin. Baths are soothing and should be given in lukewarm water — never hot!

While bathing your child you should keep the bath to a short period of time. Wait to use soap until just before you are ready to take her out of the bath because this will stop her from sitting in soapy water — which can dry the skin. The soap should be gentle and fragrance-free.

Dry your baby by soothingly patting her with a soft, absorbent towel. Do not rub hard. Rubbing hard is not only uncomfortable for your baby — but you also want to leave some moisture on his skin even after you have patted her dry.

Use a scent-free, no allergy moisturizer while her skin is still damp so that you will seal the remaining moisture into her skin.

Be sure to moisturize your baby several times a day in order to keep her skin from drying out. This is a vital part of your baby psoriasis treatment!

It is essential your baby remain cool and not become hot and sticky. Don’t overdress her. The clothes you do put on her should be made of cotton or other natural fibers because they allow the skin to breathe.

Remember her bed sheets should also allow her skin to breathe and stay cool. Make certain the sheets are clean and dry. Soft 100% cotton sheets are probably best.

Keep fingernails clipped to help avoid scratching of tender areas. Some folks have found putting little socks over their baby’s hands is a great method to stop scratching.

Make certain your baby’s clothing, and also her bedding, are washed in a mild, perfume free detergent. You can add softener, but make certain it is not perfumed and is allergy free.

I know how prickly your baby may become when suffering flare-ups of psoriasis. I am so sorry he or she has this skin problem, and I wish you the very best in dealing with it. I know how difficult it is to watch your children suffer.

Aren’t you comforted in knowing that there are literally thousands of parents who have infants that no longer have psoriasis flare-ups? I wish you the best in finding some effective, natural home cures that will remove them in your child, too.
