Do you know the three major triggering factors of allergic eczema?

Allergic eczema is a common skin disease, which is very harmful to patients and often causes symptoms of severe pain and itching. There are many causes of allergies and eczema. The most important ones are three factors, including genetic factors, environmental factors, and protein allergy factors. In daily life, patients must strengthen prevention work related to environmental factors and protein allergy factors.

1. Genetic factors

Infant eczema is the infancy manifestation of atopic dermatitis. Atopic dermatitis is also called atopic dermatitis, atopic eczema, hereditary allergic dermatitis, hereditary allergic eczema, etc., which is related to hereditary allergic constitution.

If parents have allergic diseases such as asthma, urticaria, allergic rhinitis, etc., the child will have immunological abnormalities. The IgE content in the plasma of children with eczema is several to dozens of times higher than that of normal babies, which is determined by genetic genes.

2. Environmental factors

Eczema may be caused by long-term exposure to sunlight, or by damp or dry skin. Sometimes, if the patient scratches the skin violently or rubs it severely, it will cause this more serious disease. In addition, indoor temperature and humidity have a certain impact on the incidence of infant eczema.

3. Protein allergy

A high-protein diet may be an external pathogenic factor that triggers infantile eczema. Among the mothers of children with eczema, 92.7% paid great attention to nutrition during pregnancy, mainly eating high-protein foods such as chicken, duck, fish, shrimp, etc. Some like to eat spicy and other irritating foods. In addition, some breastfeeding mothers mainly feed on eggs, beef, mutton, etc. in order to improve nutrition. Breastfeeding mothers who eat spicy and other irritating foods and seafood products may also aggravate their children's eczema.

Antihistamines and sedatives are commonly used to relieve itching. In the acute phase, calcium, vitamin C, sodium thiosulfate can be injected intravenously, or procaine can be used for intravenous blockade. For patients with acute generalized eczema who have not responded to multiple therapies, short-term use of corticosteroids may be considered. Once the acute symptoms are under control, the dosage should be reduced or withdrawn as appropriate to prevent adverse reactions caused by long-term use of hormones. If there is infection, appropriate antibiotics should be considered.
