Spring is easy to get foot skin disease

  Spring is the high season for skin diseases. This reporter learned from several large general hospitals in Guangzhou that the number of patients with skin diseases has increased about two times more than usual in the past two weeks. In particular, there has been a significant increase in the number of patients with foot skin diseases such as tinea pedis and foot eczema, or recurrence. Experts warn that for people with special constitution such as sensitive or have a history of skin diseases, it is more important to do enough conditioning work in the spring to effectively defend the foot skin diseases.  Spring has a child’s face, temperature changes, climate variability, prompting the body’s microvascular contraction and expansion frequently, the skin becomes delicate, sensitive. Spring is also the season of climate change, coupled with a series of exogenous stimuli such as pollen, air pollution, viruses and bacteria are active, there will be a variety of skin diseases, making spring a high incidence of skin diseases.  Some people’s hands and feet will secrete a lot of sweat because of the developed sweat glands, especially the feet, and if they wear non-breathable shoes for a long time, the feet will peel, itch and grow blisters when the heat and humidity come up. The second hospital of Sun Yat-sen University dermatological venereal disease district chief Chen Jianhao pointed out that in recent times, the number of patients coming to see the foot skin disease gradually increased, mainly tinea pedis, foot eczema, papular urticaria these three skin diseases.  In addition, there is more pollen in the air in spring, and pollen affects more than just the surface skin, because pollen inhaled by breathing can affect the whole body through blood circulation, thus aggravating allergies or recurrence of tinea pedis, foot eczema, and papular urticaria.  The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing. He wondered, “Am I not suffering from tinea pedis?  The first thing you need to do is to get rid of the blisters, so when you see blisters on your feet with itching, you think it’s foot fungus. In addition to tinea pedis, there are many other skin conditions that manifest themselves as blisters and itching on the feet, such as eczema, papular urticaria, and contact dermatitis. In particular, eczema has similar symptoms to tinea pedis and is most likely to be misdiagnosed as athlete’s foot.  Tinea pedis is caused by a fungal infection, and the skin damage often starts on one foot first, and only infects the other foot days, weeks, or months later. Patients emit a pungent odor when they remove their shoes. The scars appear mainly on the belly and sides of the toes, most commonly between the third and fourth toes, and can also spread to the bottom of the foot. They are small, deep blisters that can gradually fuse into large scars. The skin lesions of tinea pedis are characterized by well-defined borders that can gradually expand outward.  Eczema of the foot is an allergic reaction, and allergens are often not easily identified. The onset of the lesions is often bilateral and simultaneous and symmetrical, unlike tinea pedis. The scars have unclear borders and can be found on the soles of the feet, the bellies of the toes, between the toes, the backs of the toes, and the backs of the feet. Piles of small blisters that may ooze yellow mucus.  Papular urticaria occurs mainly on the lower legs of the lower limbs, where insect bites such as fleas and mosquitoes cause allergic reactions.  After examination, the above-mentioned Xiao Zhang student was indeed suffering from eczema. He used the wrong medication so that it was counterproductive and his symptoms worsened. Therefore, it is especially important to remind patients that dermatological medications should be differentiated between fungal infections, viral infections, or allergies and use different targeted medications.  The doctor asked her father, who had tinea pedis, about her genetic susceptibility to it. However, she was confused: her father’s shoes were kept in the shoe closet with my mother’s and mine, so why was I the only one infected, while my mother was fine?  The explanation: foot fungus is usually caused by fungal infection, which is not only not easy to kill completely, but also very contagious. If you do not pay attention to the hygiene of the shoe closet, the same will cause recurrent attacks of foot fungus, and even involve other members of the family infected with foot fungus.  Miss Zhong’s father suffered from foot fungus, fungus-contaminated shoes in the dark and unventilated shoe closet, it is easy for the fungus to multiply. Moreover, the dander scattered in the shoe closet also carries a lot of fungus. If the shoes are clean, they may be contaminated with fungal dander and contaminated by the neighboring dirty shoes, and become infected with fungus.  Miss Chung, this is because tinea pedis also has the characteristic of genetic susceptibility. Miss Chung is related to her father by blood, while her mother is not related to her father by blood, so Miss Chung is more susceptible to tinea pedis than her mother.  The eczema got better when he had his rotten tooth removed. 41-year-old Mr. Liu had a rotten tooth that had been itching unbearably when his eczema came back for years. The doctor advised him to have his rotten tooth removed first. As expected, his eczema cleared up soon after the tooth was removed. He wondered: What does this eczema have to do with a rotten tooth?  Explanation: Infectious allergy is one of the four major factors that cause skin allergy. Such as bacterial and viral infections can cause or aggravate skin diseases. In addition to rotten teeth, chronic diseases such as chronic laryngitis, cholecystitis, gastric ulcer, hepatitis B virus, etc., can cause the body’s immunity to decline, which can lead to recurrent episodes of eczema, ringworm, and hives. Patients who are older and have diabetes are more likely to contract tinea pedis. The recurring eczema of Mr. Liu mentioned above is directly related to the bacterial infection of rotten teeth. Therefore, patients with skin diseases should not only pay attention to the treatment of skin diseases, but also pay attention to whether they suffer from some chronic diseases and treat them in time.  The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. His neighbor, Mr. Chen, who has ringworm on his feet, itches so much that he keeps scratching with his hands, and the affected area is scratched and watered. But Mr. Chen still thought to apply ringworm salve to his feet as a matter of course, and as a result, he jumped in pain.   The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who have been in the business for a long time. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who have been in the business for a long time.  In addition, the skin disease is also divided into acute and chronic phases, and the medication is different for different periods. In the acute stage, there are often symptoms of skin damage such as pimples, erythema and blisters, the medication should be mild and not irritate the skin, such as a mild water agent, wet compress. And it is not appropriate to use ointment, otherwise it is not conducive to the drying of exudates. And only flushing, swelling, papules and no ulceration, you can choose powder, lotion, powder should be evenly sprinkled on the skin of the affected area. The lotion should be shaken well before use and applied locally. And those lesions are thicker, dry, chronic phase of the skin disease, it can be used cream, ointment, if the use of water agent is not enough, because the water agent is easy to evaporate. If a scab has formed, use vegetable oil to soften the scab and then wipe it off or remove it. Mr. Chen, who has athlete’s foot, has been scratched and is in the acute stage, so of course he should not use ringworm drops because they contain alcohol and are irritating. He should go to the hospital to prescribe Chinese medicine wet compresses and wait for the exudate to dry before using ringworm drops.
