Dear Rukmi…

Kalo gatel2 gitu sih mending sering2 dilap aja n
sering2 ganti baju deh… pokoke usahain kulitnya Aya
kering n bebas keringat….
Spt kata kamu bisa jd Aya kena biang keringat  or
alergi krn habis makan ikan n 'baby cough'nya.. or
malah bisa dua2nya tuh alias alergi n kringet buntet…

Bedak sih setauku malah menutup pori2 kulit n bahkan
bisa memperlama bintik2 n malah nambahin 

Kalo emang bener alergi… so, jauhin aja pencetusnya…
ntar lama2 ilang sendiri.. kalo udah ilang pencetus
alerginya

Kalo gak salah inget nih Makne Zalwa pernah tanya2 di
BA bebrapa kali about bintik2nya di badan Zalwa… ada
yg bilang alergi, cacar monyet, herpes, dll… sampe
dikasih bedak macem2 diminumin syrup alerzin (cmmiw
kalo salah ejaan) yg bikin Zalwa lemessss n matanya
sayu… n kalo gak salah ingett nih setelah gak diberi
apa2 malah sembuh.. emang wktnya sembuh kali yee….

So, kalo aku boleh kasih saran nih… cobain sering2 aja
diganti bajunya Aya.. cuci smua sprei urung bantal, n
baju2nya tanpa deterjen… trus mandiin Aya kalo bisa
tanpa sabun n jgn dikasih apapun spt bedak, minyak
telon, dsb…. Takutnya sih dermatitis atopi (cmiiw lagi
yah kalo salah ejaan)

Allergy Treatment Guide

Allergic rhinitis, or hay fever, is a common problem
in infants and children. The most common symptoms
include a stuffy or runny nose with clear drainage,
sneezing, itchy eyes and nose, sore throat, throat
clearing and a cough that may be worse at night and in
the morning. 

These symptoms usually occur during certain times of
the year for people with seasonal allergies,
corresponding to being exposed to outdoor allergens,
such as tree pollens, grasses and weeds.

Other people may have perennial allergies, with
problems occurring year round from exposure to indoor
allergens, such as dust mites, pets, second hand smoke
and molds.

Other signs of having allergic rhinitis include the
'allergic salute,' a common habit of children which
consists of rubbing their nose upward. This is usually
because the nose is itchy and this practice can lead
to a small crease in the skin of the lower part of the
nose. 

Children with allergic rhinitis also commonly have
'allergic shiners,' which are dark circles under the
eyes caused by nasal congestion.

Allergic rhinitis does run in certain families and are
more common in children that have asthma or eczema. It
is also more common in children that are exposed to
second hand smoke, air pollution and pets.

Having uncontrolled allergies can put your child at
risk for getting a secondary sinus infection, ear
infections, and for having poor concentration at
school. It can also make asthma symptoms worse. 

Allergy Treatments

The best treatment for allergic rhinitis is to avoid
what your child is allergic to by following the
prevention and environmental controls described below.

Although food allergies as a trigger for a runny nose
is not common, if you notice that your child's allergy
symptoms always get worse after being exposed to
certain foods, then you should avoid those foods. The
most common foods that can cause problems include:
milk, eggs (especially egg yolks), peanuts, soybeans,
tree nuts, seafood, and wheat.


Allergy Prevention

These steps help to control common allergens,
including dust mites, mold, animal dander and pollens.


*       Get rid of dust collectors, including heavy drapes,
upholstered furniture, & stuffed animals. 
*       Use an airtight, allergy-proof plastic cover on all
mattresses, pillows and boxsprings. 
*       Wash all bedding and stuffed animals in hot water
every 7-14 days. 
*       If you must keep pets in the house, at least keep
them out of your child's bedroom and wash your pet
each week to remove surface allergens. 
*       Avoid exposing your child to molds by keeping him
away from damp basements or water-damaged areas of
your home (check under carpets). 
*       Remove carpeting if possible. 
*       Vacuum frequently (when your child is not in the
room, since many of the things that cause allergies
are small enough to go back out of the vacuum cleaner
bag). 
*       Cover air vents with filters. 
*       Avoid the use of ceiling fans. 
*       For seasonal allergies, keep windows closed in the
car and home to avoid exposure to pollens and limit
outdoor activities when pollen counts are highest
(early morning for spring time tree pollens, afternoon
and early evening for summer grasses, and in the
middle of the day for ragweed in the fall) 
*       Consider using a HEPA filter to control airborne
allergens (these only work if what you are allergic to
is airborne, which doesn't include dust mites and
mold). 
*       Keep indoor humidity low, since dust mites and mold
increase in high humidity. 
*       Provide a smoke-free environment for your child (it
is not enough to simply smoke outside).



Allergy Medications

The medications that are used to control the symptoms
of allergic rhinitis include decongestants,
antihistamines and steroids. If symptoms are mild, you
can use over the counter medications as needed. Avoid
using topical decongestants (such as Afrin) for more
than 3-5 days at a time or frequent use of over the
counter allergy medicines with antihistamines, as they
can cause drowsiness and poor performance in school. 

Prescription allergy medications include the newer,
non-sedating antihistamines, such as Allergra,
Claritin, Clarinex and Zyrtec (usual dose is 1-2
teaspoons or 1 pill once a day), and topical steroids,
such as Nasonex, Flonase, and Nasacort (usual dose is
1-2 squirts in each nostril once each day). If your
child's symptoms are well controlled, then you can
decrease the dose of the nasal steroid that you are
using for 1-2 weeks and then consider trying your
child off of it and see how they do. Continue the
antihistamine for 1-2 months or until your child's
allergy season is over.

Keep in mind that Claritin is now over-the-counter and
it is also available in the generic forms Alavert and
loratadine.

Singulair is another medicine for kids with allergies.
Although previously just used as a preventative
medication for kids with asthma, it is now also
approved to treat allergies. It is available as a
chewable tablet and is approved for kids over age 1.

To be effective, your child should be using these
medications every day. They will not work as well if
just used on an as needed basis. They are in general
very safe with few side effects, but the nasal
steroids have been associated with growth suppression
when used in high doses. This is however rare, and
your pediatrician will monitor your child's growth to
make sure this does not happen.

If your child's symptoms are not improving with the
combination of the antihistamine and steroid, then we
may also use a decongestant, such as Sudafed, AH-CHEW
D, or as a combination (Claritin D).

For seasonal allergies, it is best to start using
these medications just before your child's season
begins and then continue the medicines every day all
through the season. For perennial allergies, your
child may need to take these medicines year round.

Your child may also benefit from nasal irrigations
using saline nose drops 1-3 times a day. This will
help the sinuses drain.

Important Reminders

*       Call your pediatrician if you need a refill on your
medications for allergic rhinitis, if your child is
not improving in 1-2 weeks, or if he is showing signs
of a secondary sinus infection, with a green runny
nose lasting more than 10 days. 
*       If your child does not improve with these
interventions, then we will consider having him see an
allergy specialist for allergy testing to figure out
what he is allergic to and to possibly start
immunotherapy injections.

 [balita-anda] Alergi lagi..

Hi all,

Mazaya (12,5 bln), sekarang lagi beruntusan merah2 dan
agak besar khususnya
di lengannya. Beruntusan ini ada sejak hari selasa
(tgl11). Saya agak
bertanya-tanya penyebebnya antara biang keringat
(karena memang produksi
keringetnya banyak meskipun di ruang AC suhu 27) dan
alergi ikan (karena
hari senennya abis makan ikan teri basah).

Mulai kemarin Mazaya dimandiin pake Lactacid dan
dibedakin Salycil. Tapi
sampai sekarang masih ada tuh beruntusannya. Malah
sekarang ke jidat segala
(kalo ini biang keringet kali ye,,).

Apa alergi obat ya.. soalnya lagi batuk pilek.. minum
'baby cough' tapi cuma
2 hari. Dan sebelumnya udah muncul sih beruntusannya
tapi belum nyata banget
yang di lengan.

Gimana nih ibu2? Perlu dikasih obat apa ya kira2,
soalnya Mazaya garuk-garuk
mulu nih, gatel gitu lho..

Please sharingnya ya...

Warm regards,

Bunda Mazaya
