When the cold spell hits, apart from a noticeable increase in patients with colds and cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, there is also an increasing trend in various kinds of skin diseases. Jiang Ping, a professor in the Department of Dermatology at Bethune Second Hospital of Jilin University introduced that children have weaker resistance, and are thus prone to suffer from skin diseases such as chickenpox, roseola, tongue licking dermatitis, eczema, etc. Parents should closely monitor any changes in their children, and seek medical attention at a formal hospital once any abnormality is detected.
