Which is better for eczema, furnace glycolite or zinc oxide

Furfuryl usually refers to compounded Furfuryl lotion and zinc oxide usually refers to zinc oxide ointment, both of which have astringent and protective effects on the skin and are indicated for acute pruritic skin conditions such as eczema, urticaria and prickly heat. If the patient’s eczema is dry, use compounded stove glycolic lotion; if the patient’s eczema is relatively moist, use zinc oxide ointment. Compounded stove glycolic lotion has anti-itch, astringent and protective effects on the skin, but has weak bactericidal power and is more suitable for patients with dry rashes. For example, in patients with erythema, wind-bursts, or blisters before they break out, the patient will feel cooler when the moisture evaporates after applying compounded furnace glycolate lotion to the skin where eczema exists, and thus the itching can be relieved. Zinc oxide ointment has a weak astringent, moisturizing and protective effect on the skin, and at the same time has an absorbent and drying function. When patients have acute or subacute dermatitis, eczema or small skin ulcers, applying zinc oxide ointment can effectively reduce the exudation of exudate and provide relief and treatment of eczema. Patients with eczema, urticaria and other skin damage can use the above mentioned drugs for relief and treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Patients should be aware that when the skin is broken and the exudate is high, the use of compounded furnace glycolate lotion and zinc oxide ointment is not recommended. The powder in compounded stove glycolic lotion will mix with the exudate and cover the broken skin and may cause significant pain when used when the skin is broken. In addition, zinc oxide ointment contains liquid paraffin, petroleum jelly and other oily bases. Zinc oxide ointment is also not suitable when there is a lot of exudation from the affected area, and there will be some sealing effect, which is not conducive to the improvement of the lesions.
