How harmful are recurring eczema attacks?

Eczema is a relatively common skin disease, which is often related to allergic causes. If you do not pay attention to conditioning, it will often lead to repeated attacks, which is quite harmful to the body. First of all, it is easy to cause repeated itching of the skin. When it is more serious, it will form patches of erythema, cause exudation, and show symptoms of erosion. For patients, it will cause great psychological pressure.

1. Unbearable itching

Eczema causes unbearable itching, which affects normal work and life. No matter which part of the body is affected by allergic eczema, the severe itching will cause great pain to the patient and even affect normal work and life. If it is not treated for a long time, the patient will become listless, irritable and have mental disorders.

2. Severe damage to the appearance

In the early or acute stage of eczema, the affected area has patches of erythema, dense or scattered small papules, or blisters that are difficult to see with the naked eye. In severe cases, there are large areas of exudate and erosion. In the subacute state, the exudate decreases and scabs form, and the affected area turns from bright red to dark red, without large areas of erosion. In the chronic state, the exudate is less or completely dry and scabs form, which are often mixed with scales to form scaly scabs. The affected area is darker in color or has more pigmentation, sometimes less pigmentation, and cracks are prone to occur in the skin lines, especially in areas with greater mobility. These severe symptoms seriously affect the patient's appearance.

3. Increased psychological pressure

If eczema is not treated in time or the treatment method is unscientific, it can also lead to pigmentation or scars. Traditional Western medicine treatment for eczema cannot solve the root cause and allergens of eczema, and it is prone to recurrence; long-term oral administration of hormone drugs will have toxic side effects and cause great harm to the human body. The persistence of eczema increases the psychological stress of patients.

There are still many dangers of eczema, especially the three aspects mentioned above. Once you pay attention to them, for example, some people will experience increased psychological pressure, and some people's damage to the skin is still very serious, so you must pay more attention to it.
