  The most common skin allergies under 1 year old are skin allergies, such as infant eczema, mostly related to eating milk and eggs. Because the intestinal development of infants in infancy is not complete, some heterogeneous proteins are not easy to digest, and it is easy to cause allergies in the blood. And around 1 year old, in addition to eczema, the intestinal manifestations increased, such as gastrointestinal diarrhea.

   For those who have a history of allergies in their family, try to do it later when adding supplementary foods such as milk and eggs to the child. If it is not clear, you can do an allergen test for the child.
