Urgent ‘margarita burn’ warning after baby left with blistered red raw mouth and cheeks after snacking on veggie sticks
"She was in the sun for 20 to 30 minutes, the celery juice drool was wiped away with a dry cloth and bathed that evening."
Later that evening, the reaction started to develop and painful blisters began to damage the baby's skin."Now in retrospect, of course, we would have done things differently and made an intentional effort to go inside and wash with soap and water." It has been two months since the terrifying incident but the mum said her daughter was recovering well.Margarita burn is a skin condition also known as phytophotodermatitis.This chemical is found in limes and citrus fruits, celery, figs, fennel and a number of other plants.People with a mild case of margarita burn may never even notice it, as the condition tends to clear up on its own.
