Friends who suffer from eczema may have this question: Can cooling oil treat eczema? Because everyone knows that cooling oil has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, they think that diseases like eczema can also be treated. However, we need to analyze the specific situation of eczema. Some severe eczema cannot be treated with cooling oil. Because eczema is a relatively stubborn disease, and cooling oil is only a milder one that can cure symptoms such as mosquito bites, we still need to analyze each specific problem specifically.

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, exudativeness, pruritus, polymorphism and recurrence. It is also an allergic inflammatory skin disease characterized by diverse rashes, symmetrical distribution, recurrent severe itching, and easy development into a chronic disease.

Cooling oil is a light green clear oily liquid with a special aroma and a cool and spicy taste. It is mainly composed of menthol, camphor, eucalyptus oil, eugenol and methyl salicylate. Fengyoujing is used to treat headaches, dizziness, motion sickness caused by mosquito bites and colds. It has the effects of cooling, relieving pain, dispelling wind and relieving itching. Therefore, Fengyoujing cannot treat eczema.

I hope that patients with eczema can seek medical treatment as soon as possible and choose better treatment methods to recover as soon as possible.

Among them, one of the main ingredients of cooling oil is camphor, which has a mild stimulating and antiseptic effect when applied to the skin. If you apply it vigorously, it will have a reddening effect; if you apply it lightly, it will feel like mint and have a cooling sensation, which is due to the stimulation of the cold receptors. It also has a mild local anesthetic effect. Camphor has a stimulating effect on the gastrointestinal mucosa, making the stomach feel warm and comfortable, while large amounts can cause nausea and vomiting. Camphor ointment is used clinically to relieve pain and relieve itching. Oral administration has a carminative and mild expectorant effect.

Moreover, it should be noted that camphor is toxic to a certain extent, so it should not be used by pregnant women in the first three months of pregnancy.

Warm reminder: Eczema and allergies are related. Eating foods such as milk, candy, egg white, fish, etc. may cause allergies or aggravate allergies, so you should eat as little as possible.

There are many effective methods to treat eczema, and we can choose treatment according to our actual situation.
