How to treat crotch eczema?

Eczema in the crotch is actually quite common. This is because the crotch is dark and humid. If it is not cleaned properly, it can easily lead to eczema. When eczema occurs in the crotch area, the patient will obviously feel discomfort on the skin. At this time, it should be treated and cared for in time.

Eczema is a common inflammatory skin disease of the epidermis and superficial dermis caused by a variety of internal and external factors. It is generally believed to be related to allergic reactions. Its clinical manifestations are characterized by symmetry, exudative, pruritic dermatosis, polymorphism, and recurrence. Eczema is called "dampness sore" or "dampness sore" in traditional Chinese medicine. The so-called "poison" refers to some heat toxins that cause the body to reject and react sensitively. These heat toxins may be caused by food, medicine or daily necessities (such as paint, chemical glue, mothballs, etc.). As for "dampness", it means that the body functions are blocked by dampness and become sluggish. Since the human body is 70% water, if the water flow is stagnant, the body will be in a "wet" state. Symptoms include heavy limbs, edema, indigestion, loose stools, etc.

Eczema is called "dampness sore" or "dampness sore" in traditional Chinese medicine. The so-called "poison" refers to some heat toxins that cause the body to reject and react sensitively. These heat toxins may be caused by food, medicine or daily necessities (such as paint, chemical glue, mothballs, etc.). As for "dampness", it means that the body functions are blocked by dampness and become sluggish. For external use, since the human body is 70% water, if the water flow is stagnant, the body will be in a "wet" state, with symptoms such as heavy limbs, edema, indigestion, loose stools, etc.

Eczema patients suffer from both heat and dampness. On the one hand, the patient has real fire, but because his body functions are sluggish, the liver, the body's chemical factory, is unable to perform its function of dispersing and detoxifying, and excrete the heat and toxins in the body through urination and defecation. As a result, toxins have to be excreted through the pores. If the microcirculation system is poor or the pores are blocked, toxins will accumulate in the body. When it accumulates to a certain level or after eating some allergenic foods, skin diseases such as eczema will occur. Secondly, in addition to skin problems, people with damp heat may also have symptoms such as chest and abdominal distension, constipation (constipation food) or diarrhea, and scanty and reddish-yellow urine.
