How to recognize skin irritations?
A child's skin is always more fragile than that of adults. After swimming in the pool, you may notice that the child's skin is dry and itchy. Red patches or burning sensations may appear. Irritation may occur all over the body or in a few more sensitive areas. Such as the folds of the elbows, knees, hands and also on the face. It is important to know that the symptoms can also appear spontaneously, even after several swimming sessions. So not necessarily from the first swim.
Tips to relieve your child's irritated skin:
2. Spray a little thermal water on your child's body. This reduces itching and allows the epidermis to regenerate.
3. Dry the skin well
4. Apply a moisturizing cream or milk (for atopic skin) all over the body, but especially on the most sensitive areas (elbows, knees, hands and face).
Tip to prevent skin irritation after swimming:
2. Watch your child's skin for signs of irritation (even before entering the pool). This may help you to determine whether chlorine is the cause of any irritation.
3. After every shower, always dry your child's skin thoroughly before "creaming"
4. To moisturize, choose a cream for atopic skin (prefer soaps for atopic skin, as they need to be gentle at their age).
5. Encourage the use of swimming goggles and a silicone bathing cap when swimming in the pool. Your scalp needs to be protected from chlorine too.
6. Little extra: Don't forget to rinse your floating swimsuit PLOUF for girl and boy and accessories your child has used in the pool. Chlorine can also damage them.
