For many parents, do they often see the barbs on their baby's hands? What kind of microelements are they missing? What's the matter with the barbs on their baby's hands?
A barb is a small piece of cuticle raised at the edge of a nail. Many people have heard the saying that "long barb is lack of vitamin", especially "lack of vitamin B" and "lack of vitamin C" are the most common. But it's not scientific to say that there are other reasons why babies have barbs on their hands.
When there is barb, it must not be pulled or pulled hard. After the baby takes a bath, when the barb is soft, gently cut it off with the baby nail clipper.
Dry skin caused by drinking water
Careful parents will find that the finger that is often sucked by the baby will not only grow barbs, but also dry skin. Summer weather is hot, parents often do not limit the baby to play with water, but water play more, baby's hands will become dry. Dry skin is prone to barbs.
Mom and dad should guide the baby to reduce the frequency of eating hands. After playing with water, the baby should also wash and apply skin care products in time to avoid excessive dryness of local skin.
Genetic factors lead to long barb
In fact, when discovering the barb on the child's hand, parents should recall whether they often have barb on their hand.
Easy to grow barbs is a very strong genetic phenomenon, which is not directly related to the lack of vitamins or other nutrients.
As soon as there is a small problem in the child, the parents will think of what is missing. This kind of mood can be understood, but it is really unnecessary. If the child's overall growth and development is normal, parents should not worry too much about small details.
