How to solve your child's intimate itching?

Intimate itching is a common problem in children, often caused by irritation or allergic reactions. Here are some tips to prevent and soothe these discomforts in the vulva or penis.

To be avoided absolutely

• Synthetic and tight clothing : Panties, jeans and leggings made of synthetic materials can make itching worse by preventing the skin from breathing. Opt for loose-fitting clothing to minimize irritation.
• Scented diapers: Diapers containing perfumes or chemicals can cause redness and irritation on children's sensitive mucous membranes. They should be avoided to preserve your child's comfort.
• Overly aggressive hygiene products : Perfumed soaps and body creams containing harsh chemical ingredients can further irritate intimate areas.

What to focus on

• Natural materials : Choose clothes made of cotton, linen, bamboo or wool, which are soft on the skin and allow better ventilation. Also prefer natural detergents to avoid allergenic substances present in conventional detergents.
• Gentle hygiene : Clean your child's intimate areas with water and a mild soap, such as Le Pain Intime de Baûbo . This treatment is specially formulated to soothe sensitive mucous membranes. After washing, apply the Vulva Balm to soothe redness and moisturize the skin. Moreover, it is often recommended by mothers to soothe their child on a daily basis!

• Sports activities without irritation : Sports activities can cause friction and irritation, especially with the bike saddle or wet swimsuit. To avoid this, dress your child in loose sportswear, such as jogging pants, and why not apply a dab of Vulva Balm after the activity.

Tips for proper personal hygiene

• Teach your child how to wipe properly after using the toilet to avoid irritation from contact between the anus and vulva.
• Sufficient hygiene, but not excessive : Excessive cleaning can also irritate sensitive areas, so be moderate in your daily hygiene.
