Urticaria is a common allergic skin disease. When exposed to allergens, red patches of varying shapes and sizes appear on specific parts of the body, and itching occurs in these patches.
The common causes of hives are.
①Foods such as fish, shrimp, crab and eggs are the most common. Secondly, certain spices and condiments can also cause it.
There are many drugs that can cause the disease. Penicillin, sulfonamides, dysentery, serum vaccines, etc., often through the immune mechanism to trigger urticaria. Aspirin, morphine, atropine, vitamin B1 and other drugs are histamine-releasing substances, which can directly cause histamine release from mast cells to trigger urticaria.
③Infection: including viruses (such as epizootic virus, hepatitis virus), bacteria (such as golden grape), fungi and parasites (such as roundworms, etc.).
④Animal and plant factors, such as insect bites or inhalation of pollen, feathers, dander, etc.
⑤ Physical factors, such as heat and cold, sunlight, friction and pressure can be caused. In addition, gastrointestinal diseases, metabolic disorders, endocrine disorders and psychological factors can also cause.
At present, there is no specific treatment for urticaria in Western medicine, mostly using internal antihistamines, corticosteroids for temporary inhibition, such as oral Western medicine, oral hormones, topical solution lotions, emulsions, mud creams, oils, ointments, emulsions, coating agents, tinctures and hard creams. The use of corticosteroids for a long time or in large doses can lead to addiction and drug dependence, and most often, the condition improves after using the drug, and once the drug is stopped, the original lesion at the site of use is aggravated. When the hormone is reapplied, the condition improves or disappears; if the drug is discontinued again, the rebound reoccurs and is more serious than before.
Patients are totally dependent on hormones to avoid the pain after stopping the medication. There will be obvious thinning of the skin, capillary dilation, sometimes purpura, etc., especially in the face can appear deeper persistent erythema. The longer you use hormones, the more severe the rebound allergy will be. It can make the skin thin, fragile, atrophy, capillary dilation, purpura, fungal infection, acne-like dermatitis, etc. Become vulnerable to damage; can also appear mild hairy, sweaty, subcutaneous bleeding and wound healing difficulties. Especially, some skin diseases are more inappropriate to use hormonal agents.
If large doses of corticosteroid drugs such as dexamethasone, Coninextrone and prednisone are injected or taken internally for a long time or for a short time, they can also cause complications such as obesity, hirsutism, acne, increased blood sugar, hypertension, edema, decreased blood potassium, menstrual disorders, osteoporosis, aseptic osteonecrosis, gastric and duodenal ulcers. It can also cause certain damage to the kidney, such as aggravating glomerular disease proteinuria, aggravating glomerulosclerosis, easily causing kidney calcification or stones, inducing or aggravating kidney infectious diseases, causing hypokalemic nephropathy, etc. It can also cause a series of substance metabolism disorders such as sugar, protein, fat and water-electrolyte in the body, and destroy the body’s defense system and inhibit the immune response ability.
If some patients use corticosteroids during the treatment process and become dependent on them, the rebound aggravation of the primary lesion and the secondary side effects after stopping the drug can cause great pain to the patient. The patient’s family should do a good job of thinking about the patient, have a full understanding of the role and side effects of hormones, and enhance their confidence to overcome the disease. And under the correct choice of therapeutic drugs and gradual reduction until withdrawal of corticosteroids, methods and herbs to counteract the above side effects and adverse reactions should be chosen. To achieve the purpose of safe and complete cure of the disease.
To find the cause of the disease to eliminate the cause of the disease is the main, there are infections often must apply antibacterial, allergies to certain foods temporarily do not eat. Chronic infection foci are often the cause of chronic urticaria, but in some patients with urticaria the cause is difficult to determine or cannot be found.
1.Specifically for stubborn rashes, eczema, urticaria, effective treatment of deep allergies, enhance the body’s immunity to resist allergens, blocking the occurrence of allergies from the root.
2, eliminate blood heat and blood dryness in the body, comprehensive blood purification, improve skin microcirculation, rapid elimination of edema, rash, rubella, and other eczema, measles-like lesions
3, strong antioxidant, improve vascular regulation, restore the body’s own blood supply and oxygen supply function, to ensure that the cells of various tissues and organs breathe smoothly.
4.Activate the body’s own anti-inflammatory function, and actively eliminate deep skin inflammation and vascular inflammation, and prevent further deterioration of damaged areas by external infection, and prevent eczema, urticaria-induced complications.
5, thoroughly remove skin toxins, blood toxins, dirty toxins, remove residual toxins such as western medicine and Chinese medicine, activate the toxin self-metabolism and barrier function of damaged parts of the cells.
6.Effectively regulate sebum secretion, accelerate the flaking of aging keratin and melanin caused by red rash and infection healing, and balance the skin’s own metabolic function.
Eczema, urticaria is an allergic inflammatory skin disease, is a common clinical disease, multi-morbidity. In the early stage of the disease, dense corn-sized papules and blisters appear on the basis of erythema and edema on the skin, and vesicles, oozing, crusting and flaking appear after the blisters are broken, and itching can be consciously felt. Some people apply hormonal creams and other ointments on their own, which makes the disease more and more serious.
The antihistamines are important drugs for the treatment of various urticaria patients and can control the symptoms of most patients. Although antihistamines cannot directly counter or neutralize histamine and cannot prevent the release of histamine, they have a scrambling effect on histamine and can quickly inhibit the production of wind clusters. Antihistamines have various side effects, and it is best to use those with fewer side effects, especially workers working at height, drivers and other workers should be used with caution, as it is easy to cause accidents due to fainting.
The use of an antihistamine for a long time is likely to cause drug resistance, so it can be replaced by another one. Or alternate or combine them. Children are more resistant than adults, so the relative dosage is also large.
There are many kinds of antihistamines, combined with the disease and clinical manifestations can be used Antares (hydroxyzine) has a good stabilizing and antihistamine effect on artificial urticaria, cholinergic urticaria and cold urticaria have a better effect.
Epinephrine and aminophylline can increase CAMP in mast cells and inhibit the release of histamine, which can rapidly promote acute urticaria or giant urticaria with the regression of wind or edema, especially aminophylline and antihistamines combined or synergistic effect with epinephrine, especially for patients with complications of asthma or abdominal pain.
6-Aminoacetic acid can be used for cold urticaria and giant urticaria, atropine or probenecid and chlorpromazine can be used for cholinergic urticaria.
Calcium can be used for acute urticaria, and drugs such as reserpine and anlagen for chronic urticaria.
Steroid hormones are used in severe acute urticaria and serous urticaria.
