What method can be used to recover faster from facial allergies?

For some people with allergic skin, once an allergy occurs on the face, it will not only affect their appearance, but also cause a lot of physical and mental pain, especially having to endure the pain and itching on the face. In order to get rid of the pain caused by allergies as soon as possible, allergy patients not only need to go to the hospital for treatment, but also need to take good care of themselves in daily life. Only a two-pronged approach can be effective. If you want facial allergies to heal quickly, you can do so by adjusting your lifestyle and diet, and by not using cosmetic or drug treatments. Below, I will introduce in detail the treatment and care methods of these three facial allergies, hoping to be of some help to those with facial allergies!

1. Regular work and rest schedule and a balanced diet

Avoid spicy and irritating foods and drink plenty of water (boiled water, purified water, etc., not various beverages). Live a regular life and don’t stay up late (it’s best to go to bed around 10 pm). Use air conditioning less often (air conditioning affects indoor air humidity and can cause dry skin; if it is not cleaned regularly, it can also increase the chance of mite allergies), keep the room ventilated, and place as few plants as possible indoors (plants can bring in various molds, bacteria, mites, etc., mold, bacteria, and mites are currently the most common allergens). Strengthen exercise to improve skin resistance.

2. Prohibition of cosmetics

Avoid excessive facial cleansing, and stop using cosmetics (such as foundation, cream, water, liquid, etc.) during the outbreak and recovery period. If necessary, you can keep the most basic moisturizer or moisturizer. Simple vitamin E cream is a good choice. However, if your skin experiences itching, burning sensation, or redness after using moisturizing creams, you should stop using them. Avoid sun exposure.

3. Drug treatment (appropriate drugs should be selected under the guidance of a doctor)

First, anti-allergic drugs (cetirizine, loratadine, ebastine, epinastine, etc.) and oral Chinese patent medicines for clearing heat and detoxifying can be used. Intravenous treatment (calcium supplements and compound glycyrrhizic acid glycoside, etc.) can be used when necessary; secondly, appropriate non-hormonal ointments can be used to gradually reduce the sensitivity of the skin and relieve the condition. Some patients can choose a facial mask with a repair function (if the skin feels itchy, burning, or red after using the drug, the drug should be discontinued). Avoid using topical hormonal medications, and beware of irregular products masquerading as medicines (some so-called ointments claiming to be pure Chinese medicine may contain hormones or are not medicines).

The treatment period for chronic allergic skin diseases on the face is long (1 to 3 months, or even longer), and you need to maintain a good mood.
