A Guide to Pediatric Dermatology
>> Apr 21, 2016
Children are completely dependent on their parents,
and bringing up the children in such a way that they are safe and sound and do
not have any problems is the responsibility of the parents. But there are many
occasions on which the parents fail to understand the requirement of their
children, thereby leading to a difficult situation for both the child and the
parent.
Skin rashes and other dermatological problems are very
common in children, in fact, in newborns too. Dermatological problems called
acne neonatrum can been in children below the age of 90 days, which may be
accompanied by a complication called neonatal sepsis. The treatment of this is
however, rather simple. Just regular cleansing with soap and water thoroughly
can help ease this condition.
But the neonatal sepsis requires a more elaborate
treatment with the inclusion of relative protein counts, a spinal tap and some
blood work. This could also culminate in a stay at the hospital and the
administration of antibiotics.
The risks of skin rashes range from minor to very
complex ones. Hence, care should be taken at the onset of the disorder under
the supervision of expert and veteran dermatologists who specialize in
pediatric dermatology. Kenneth Reed MD
is a professional dermatologist with a degree from the Harvard university and
has a specialization in the treatment of acne. He has been helpful in bringing
relief to many Boston residents from the painful clutches of acne. He is
associated with the South Shore hospital and the Jordan hospital, MA.
Often as a parent, you might misjudge a visible rash
on your child’s skin as something that is going to disappear with time. Since
there is a lot of risk involved in it, it would be better for you to have an
overview of what possible disorders could happen to your child’s skin. It is
acceptable till the rash is benign, but you never know if it may happen to be
harpes simplex or neonatal sepsis. The following are a few other skin discomforts
that your child might go through.
Pertaining to erythema is erythematos in which there
is redness of skin showing inflammation, and it is the result of a congestion
in some capillary. Papules are small pimple like bumps that when scratched
become crusty. Pustules have similar looks like papules but contain purulent
materials in them. Sometimes you may also find some sort of discoloration of
the skin, which are flat and fluid filled. These are called vesicles.
Dr. Kenneth Reed MD owns a dermatology service center known by the name of
DermASAP, where he takes great pride in being able to provide pediatric
dermatological remedies as well. He has extensive training from Harvard in
laser medicine and cosmetic dermatology too. His clinic houses dermatologists
who understand the concern of parents and hence works with the parents of each
child separately in order to come to a consensus regarding the treatment of the
child.
Children are innocent and your priceless possession,
you would not want to trade anything in this world for them, so it is always
better to be well educated about the probable problems that they might face so
that you can combat them.
