The mortality rate of artificial urticaria

Artificial urticaria is caused by bacterial infection due to accidental scratches on the skin, which can lead to redness, swelling, and granules on the skin, seriously affecting the composition of the blood. Therefore, artificial urticaria must be treated in time. Artificial urticaria generally does not cause death, but severe urticaria can cause blood vessels to rupture and cause excessive bleeding in the patient, leading to death.

The harm of artificial urticaria

Artificial urticaria is also a skin scratch disease. It is caused by scratching the skin with hands or blunt objects, resulting in temporary red strip-like bumps. It is an allergic reaction of the skin's blood vessels. The allergic reaction is caused by both internal and external factors. There is a special protein in the patient's serum, which is immunoglobulin. If it combines with allergens, it will cause a series of reactions, causing mast cells around the skin blood vessels to release a large amount of histamine. Histamine causes the skin blood vessels to dilate, serum to leak out of the blood vessels, and itching.

Symptoms and characteristics of artificial urticaria: The patient's skin is very sensitive to external mechanical stimulation, usually without wheals. When the skin is scratched with fingernails or blunt objects, strip-shaped raised scratches will quickly appear. Any age, no obvious cause. Infectious lesions in the body, diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, menopause, etc. are often related to the onset of the disease. Trauma, clothing, friction, bands, scratching, etc. can all cause wheals and itching. The course of the disease is uncertain, lasting for several months or persisting for a long time. Allergens are an important factor causing artificial urticaria. The most common allergens are drugs, especially penicillin, serum preparations, as well as bacteria, fungi, plant proteins, animal proteins, etc. Many people ignore the treatment of tinea pedis. Its metabolites often act as strong allergens. After being absorbed by the body, an antigen-antibody reaction will occur, which will result in skin allergies.

How to prevent urticaria in daily life

Patients with urticaria should avoid certain foods. Foods that are prone to allergies are mainly animal protein foods. The most likely to cause allergies are fish, shrimp, crab, milk, cream products, eggs, etc.

The second is plant-based food, such as bamboo shoots, spinach, mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, eggplant, broad beans, cucumbers, garlic, onions, citrus, plums, strawberries, and nuts such as chestnuts, ginkgo, walnuts, peanuts, etc.

In addition, there are some foods that can cause allergies in some people, such as alcohol, chocolate and acrolein, as well as pigments, seasonings, preservatives added to food, natural or synthetic substances in food such as yeast, salicylic acid, citric acid, etc., and foods with added mint such as mint candy, mint cigarettes or pastries.

1. Eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins or take vitamin C and B complex supplements.

2. Do not eat foods containing artificial additives, fried, deep-fried or spicy foods.

3. Use less hot compresses: Although heat can provide temporary local relief, it is actually an irritation because it can cause blood vessels to tense and release more allergens.

4. Scratch less: Scratching will not only fail to relieve the itching, but it may make the itching worse because it will increase the local temperature and release more histamine in the blood, which will make the itching worse.

5. Get more rest, avoid fatigue, and exercise moderately.

6. Eat more alkaline foods: grapes, green tea, kelp, tomatoes, sesame seeds, cucumbers, carrots, bananas, apples, oranges, mung beans, coix seeds, etc.
