1. Contact dermatitis

It refers to the local occurrence of erythema, edema, itching and pain after the skin comes into contact with a certain substance. In severe cases, blisters and peeling may occur. Substances that can cause contact dermatitis on the skin include jewelry, watch chains, glasses frames, sandals, synthetic fabrics, topical medications, chemicals, cosmetics, etc. Once you find the above symptoms, immediately look for the items that cause allergies and stop contacting them. People who are prone to contact dermatitis are mostly allergic people.

2. Eczema

There is obvious exudation. In recent years, the incidence of eczema has been on the rise, which is related to factors such as the abuse of chemical products, environmental pollution, poor management of the three wastes, the accelerated pace of life, and increased mental stress. Characteristics of the disease: A. The disease can occur at any age; B. It can occur at any part of the body surface; C. Recurrent attacks; D. Erythema, papules, blisters, erosions, exudation, scabs, desquamation, and pigmentation can be seen locally or systemically; E. Severe itching.

3. Allergies to cosmetics

Cosmetics can cause allergic symptoms such as skin redness, swelling, heat, pain, and blisters. From a medical point of view, if you find that you are allergic to a certain cosmetic, it is best not to use it. But sometimes we cannot do without it in our lives, such as hair dyeing for middle-aged and elderly people and light makeup for professional women. The most scientific method at this time is to fundamentally improve the allergic constitution.

4. Food Allergies

The manifestations of food allergies can be varied. Rash is the most common. It often occurs on the face, erythema around the mouth, and trunk. It is also more common. It is itchy and desquamative, and may have pigmentation. There is another type of condition where after eating wild vegetables, the skin may develop photosensitive dermatitis after being exposed to sunlight, with chronic edema of the face, neck and hands, as well as general fatigue, nausea, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Common foods that cause allergies include seafood (especially shellfish), bamboo shoots, mushrooms, milk, tomatoes, barley, wild vegetables, fruits, nuts, soybeans, peanuts, chocolate, etc., but sometimes it is not the food itself that causes allergies, but disinfectants, preservatives, etc. Some people have also found that taking penicillin and milk at the same time can also cause allergic reactions. In this case, the cause of the disease is likely to be penicillin.
