How to deal with blisters caused by adhesive tape allergy

There are many people in our lives who have allergic constitutions and are allergic to many daily necessities. Such as allergies to metals, tapes, various jewelry, etc. However, when you are sick and need an IV, you must use doctor's tape. If you are allergic to the tape, blisters will appear on your skin. When it is found that blisters are caused by allergic reaction to adhesive tape, you must stop using the tape, apply cold water to the affected area in time, and apply some medicine.

Why do you get allergic to adhesive tape?

1. Adhesive tape is used in many external injuries. Although it is very effective, it has a very big disadvantage which is its permeability. Because there is a layer of glue on the outer layer of the tape, its breathability is too poor, which will cause people's surrounding skin to itch, and it takes a long time to recover.

2. Adhesive tape is used in many traumas. Although it is very effective, it has a very big disadvantage, which is its permeability.

3. Having surgery for trauma is already a very painful thing. What to do if you are allergic to adhesive tape? This is a very tricky problem. Without better materials to replace adhesive tape, it is absolutely unacceptable if it fails to achieve the fixation effect. You must follow the doctor's advice to come up with some solutions.

Once skin discomfort occurs, doctors recommend that patients stop using adhesive tape or medication, and not take medication without authorization. Do not buy adrenocortical hormone ointment at a pharmacy without a diagnosis from a dermatologist, as this will harm your skin. Although it is effective in suppressing inflammation, long-term use will produce side effects and endanger health.

Treatment of adhesive tape allergy

So what should you do if you are allergic to this kind of adhesive tape? Let me introduce you to its treatment method below.

1. General treatment

Find the cause, avoid contact with coarse coagulable substances, and actively treat the symptoms.

2. Antihistamines

You can choose to apply some antihistamines to the allergic areas, which can quickly relieve itching and treat the disease. Also, avoid applying them externally to prevent allergies from occurring again.

3. Corticosteroids

For patients, some hormone reagents can be injected for a short period of time.

The correct method is to prescribe the right medicine according to the specific situation of our skin allergy, because only the correct method can alleviate the allergy to the adhesive tape. If used improperly, it may affect our health.

If it is a mild allergy, you can use calamine ointment or a milder hormone ointment appropriately. As for topical hormonal drugs for the treatment of skin allergies, such as Eucerin (hydrocortisone butyrate) and Eloson (mometasone furoate), they are particularly suitable for topical allergies.

If the allergy is severe, you can take some anti-allergic drugs, such as Claritin, Astemizole, etc. At the same time, you can appropriately use some injectable or oral hormones. However, it should be noted that people with severe skin allergies, especially acute dermatitis, must not use medicinal ointments without authorization. They can use cold wet compresses as a treatment method, and only use medicinal ointments appropriately after the rashes and erythema on the skin fade away. If there is suppuration, anti-infection drugs can be used. When the itching is unbearable, cold wet compresses can help reduce swelling and relieve itching, or a small amount of antipruritic topical ointment can be used.

In addition, sensitive skin areas should be handled with care, and cold, wet compresses are a universal and effective way to deal with allergies. Hot compress may worsen skin allergies and cause persistent redness, swelling and pain. At the same time, when using hormone ointment, do not apply it on your face, because this type of medicine can cause epidermal atrophy, pigmentation, etc., which can cause irreversible damage to the facial skin.

In terms of diet, you should eat light and non-greasy food, and try to eat less or no seafood, beef, mango and other foods.
