How to prevent the recurrence of eczema

In today's society, there are many diseases in people's daily lives that will endanger people's health. In particular, many people care about skin diseases because the skin on the outside may affect the appearance. These skin diseases have also been affecting humans themselves. In addition, they will also cause great inconvenience in people's lives. Today's medical facilities are very complete, and there are many treatment methods, but they are prone to recurrence. So how to prevent the recurrence of eczema?

Eczema usually occurs in spring, especially in babies. However, parents will take their babies to see a doctor after they have eczema, but they don’t know how to prevent the recurrence of eczema. You have to know that once eczema recurs, it will be more difficult to treat.

People with eczema must remember to pay attention to secondary irritation to the skin when using water, especially when using hot water, during the recovery period. Note: when using hot water, do not scratch hard, otherwise it may cause skin cracks and make eczema more likely.

Stabilize emotions

The skin is a person’s “psychological organ”. Many cases have shown that emotions such as depression, tension, anxiety, and fear are very detrimental to eczema and can induce and aggravate the condition.

Dietary precautions

In general, patients with eczema should eat mainly vegetarian food, which is easy to digest and does not affect the stomach and intestines. Their bowel movements should be smooth every day. They should avoid spicy, irritating, fishy and wind-inducing foods such as seafood, milk, eggs, etc. Commonly used medicinal foods that strengthen the spleen and remove dampness, such as winter melon and lotus seed soup, mung bean and red bean soup, have a good preventive effect on eczema. During the recovery period of eczema or for a period of time after recovery, you must not eat spicy food. It is also not recommended to eat irritating food or food with strong odor. It is also not recommended to eat seafood at this time. You should eat fruits and light food.

Lifestyle

You should have a regular daily routine, ensure adequate sleep, and keep a regular schedule.

Skin cleansing

Keep your skin clean. Eczema itself has destroyed the skin's barrier function. If you don't keep it clean, it will become infected, inflamed, and fester, allowing many microorganisms to take advantage of the opportunity to enter, aggravating the symptoms of eczema and prolonging the healing time. During your recovery period, your skin may still be itchy. At this time, remember not to use anti-itching drugs casually or self-assertively. It is best to use them under the advice of a doctor.

During the recovery period of eczema, you must pay attention to your clothing and try to wear soft and loose clothes. If some people like to wear tight clothes, it is recommended not to wear them anymore, otherwise it will easily cause recurrence. Also, try to wear cotton clothes, which will reduce irritation to the skin and will not cause eczema again. If you are indoors, do not turn on the air conditioner all the time, and pay attention to moisturizing.
