Can urticaria papulosa be washed with sulfur soap?
Papular urticaria is an allergic reaction caused by insect bites, which can cause severe itching. Sulfur soap, which acts as an antibacterial, antifungal, and degreasing agent, is not effective in relieving itchiness from papular urticaria, and therefore its use is not recommended. Enhancing skin cleanliness and providing symptomatic anti-allergy and itch-relieving measures are advised. Oral medications such as ebastine tablets, Jinchanchu Itching Granules, and prednisone acetate tablets can be taken. For the skin areas affected by insect bites, topical applications like fluticasone propionate cream or compound clobetasol propionate cream can be used, and the general course of treatment should be controlled within one week. (The use of medications should be under the guidance of a physician.)
Can iodophor treat athlete's foot?
Athlete's foot, commonly known as tinea pedis, is an infection caused by dermatophyte fungi. Antifungal medications are required for symptomatic treatment. However, iodophors, as disinfectants, do not have a therapeutic effect on athlete's foot. Daily enhancement of foot hygiene, frequent changing of shoes and socks, and maintaining a dry and ventilated environment are important. Laboratory examinations, including scraping skin scales from affected areas for microscopic examination of fungi, are necessary. A positive laboratory result further supports the diagnosis of tinea pedis. Treatment involves the application of antifungal creams such as naftifine and ketoconazole. To adequately control symptoms and prevent recurrence, it may be necessary to take oral antifungal medications, such as terbinafine hydrochloride tablets, itraconazole dispersible tablets or capsules, for a treatment course of more than 2 weeks. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a doctor.)
The fastest method to treat erysipelas
The fastest and most effective method for the treatment of erysipelas is systemic medication. After a penicillin skin test, administer intravenous penicillin antibiotics. If the patient is allergic to penicillin, switch to clindamycin injections for intravenous infusion. The treatment course is around 10-14 days, and requires bed rest with elevation of the lower limbs. Examine whether the primary lesions are combined with tinea faciei or tinea pedis, avoid picking the nose and feet, which can cause skin trauma and other inducement factors, and enhance skin cleanliness. Apply magnesium sulfate injection solution externally to the affected area, and treat the symptoms of the primary lesions, such as applying ketoconazole cream to the lesions caused by tinea pedis. (Please follow medical advice when using medication.)
What should I do if I have severe athlete's foot?
The so-called athlete's foot, also known as tinea pedis, is an infection caused by dermatophyte fungi. It requires symptomatic antifungal treatment, enhanced cleaning of the foot skin, frequent changing of shoes and socks, keeping the feet dry, and oral antifungal medication. Before taking the medication, it is necessary to test liver and kidney function and peripheral blood count. If there are no contraindications to medication, drugs such as oral terbinafine hydrochloride tablets and itraconazole dispersible tablets may be prescribed, along with topical antifungal medications like naftifine ketoconazole cream, luliconazole cream, or miconazole cream applied to the affected area. The treatment should follow the principle of adequate dosage and duration. Typically, the course of treatment needs to last three weeks or more to achieve a complete cure. (Please follow the doctor's orders when using medication.)
Will acne with pustules leave scars?
Pustular acne is considered a relatively severe type of acne. Without standardized and effective treatment, coupled with poor management such as scratching with hands and other adverse stimuli, it can lead to facial scars or acne pits. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance skin moisturization and sun protection, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and use medical skincare products such as acne clearing and scar diminishing creams, and acne repair serums. Oral medications such as Tanshinone IIA sulfonate capsules, Icariin tablets, and Vitamin A acid capsules, along with topical applications of Fusidic acid cream, Vitamin A acid cream, or Adapalene gel, are used. Additionally, physical treatments like fruit acid peeling and phototherapy with red and blue light are employed to provide anti-inflammatory effects and improve abnormal keratinization. (Note: Medication should be used under the guidance of a physician.)
How is flat wart caused?
Flat warts are caused by a viral infection, with HPV as the pathogen. They commonly occur on exposed areas such as the face and the backs of the hands, and are most frequently seen in adult women and children. It is necessary to strengthen immunity and provide symptomatic treatment. When necessary, physical treatments can be used to promote the disappearance of the warts, such as the commonly used methods of liquid nitrogen freezing or laser treatments. Oral administration of thymopeptide enteric capsules or pimecrolimus granules can also be used. For particularly stubborn cases, in addition to the support of traditional Chinese medicine, treatment may also need to include skin photodynamic therapy. This involves a basic treatment course of once a week for three continuous weeks, applying a photosensitizer to the affected area followed by exposure to a certain light source.
The causes of acne on the face.
The causes of acne development on the face stem from various factors, including oily skin type, poor diet, and lifestyle habits, as well as abnormal keratinization of the epithelium of the follicular sebaceous gland ducts combined with inflammatory reactions, and more, which can form inflammatory changes. These manifest as inflammatory papules, pustules, nodules, cysts, and so on. In everyday life, it is recommended to avoid spicy, stimulating, and high-calorie foods, and provide anti-inflammatory treatment to improve abnormal keratinization and other symptomatic treatments. Medications such as Tanshinone IIA sulfonate capsules, Doxycycline Hydrochloride Capsules, Vitamin B6 tablets, Antishutong tablets, and Nicotinamide tablets can be taken orally. Topical treatments like Clindamycin Phosphate Gel can be applied to affected skin areas. (Medication use should be under the guidance of a physician.)
How to completely cure folliculitis?
The occurrence of folliculitis is related to the immune status of the body. To avoid recurrence, regular dietary and lifestyle habits are necessary, along with adjustments to the body's immune status. It is advisable to avoid spicy and irritating foods, and enhance the cleanliness of the scalp and skin. Anti-inflammatory and symptomatic treatments should be administered, including oral ingestion of Tanshinone IIA sulfonate capsules and Doxycycline Hydrochloride capsules. Topical use of Fusidic acid cream on the affected follicle areas can be combined with physical therapies, such as red and blue light exposure twice a week for three consecutive weeks, thus achieving anti-inflammatory effects and improving microcirculation. Folliculitis commonly occurs in oily skin types, therefore, it is advisable to consume more green vegetables and coarse fibers to regulate metabolism. (The use of medications should be carried out under the guidance of a physician.)
How to treat oily hair and hair loss?
For greasy hair accompanied by hair loss, clinically diagnosed as seborrheic hair loss, it is due to the seborrheic dermatitis foundation, followed by subsequent hair loss symptoms. The key is to strengthen the skin's oil control and cleanliness, combined with the use of selenium disulfide cleansers or coal tar to wash the scalp. Avoid spicy and high-calorie foods, eat more green vegetables and rough fiber, etc. Oral compound glycyrrhizin tablets, cysteine tablets, and vitamin B6 tablets can be taken. For the hair loss area, topical applications such as Seven-Ingredient Curcumin Vines Rub, Compound Indomethacin Tincture, and 5% Minoxidil Spray can be used. Usually, do not stay up late, maintain regular daily routines, and keep an optimistic mood, which is conducive to the balance of sebum and hair regeneration. (The use of medications should be under the guidance of a physician.)
What should I do if I have skin allergies and itching?
Symptoms of skin allergy redness and itching require active investigation of allergenic factors and treatment measures including anti-allergy, anti-inflammatory, and anti-itching treatments. Avoid spicy, stimulating foods and seafood, and take orally Ebastine tablets, Moisturizing Anti-itch Capsules, and Prednisone Acetate tablets, among other medications. Apply Desonide Cream to the affected area when necessary.
