Genital warts are sexually transmitted diseases caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Human papillomavirus, also known as HPV virus, is mainly transmitted through sexual contact, blood transmission, close living contact, and mother-to-child transmission. Most patients infected with human papillomavirus do not have obvious symptoms in the early stages; locally, there may be slight itching or mild pain. The rash mainly appears as cauliflower-like growths on the vulva, and the shape and size of the rash can vary. After a confirmed diagnosis of genital warts, patients can visit a dermatology outpatient clinic for cryotherapy, laser therapy, or photodynamic therapy to remove the warts.

Can people with eczema eat onions?

People with eczema should not eat onions. Eczema is caused by various internal and external factors, leading to inflammation in the superficial dermis and epidermis. Clinically, the acute lesions primarily consist of vesicular rashes accompanied by itching and a pronounced tendency for exudation. Chronic eczema is primarily characterized by lichenification and is prone to recurrence. Individuals with eczema should avoid onions because onions are spicy and irritating foods. Consuming onions can exacerbate the symptoms of eczema. During the treatment of eczema, patients should not eat foods that are hot in nature, nor spicy, irritating, or allergenic foods. A mild diet should be maintained, drinking plenty of water, and consuming more vegetables and fruits. Additionally, treatment of eczema involves protecting the skin; using moisturizing creams to nourish the skin and enhance its resistance. While bathing, it’s also important to ensure the water is not too hot and to avoid using alkaline soaps or detergents that could damage the skin’s epidermis.

How to treat eczema with broken skin in children?

In cases of eczema in children, if there is broken skin, it is necessary to enhance skin care to prevent infection. Disinfectant solutions can be used to clean the skin, followed by the application of anti-inflammatory ointments to prevent infection of the wound. Additionally, attention should be paid to the fact that the skin in areas affected by eczema is sensitive and has lower self-immune capabilities, which can lead to worsening of the condition after infection, causing symptoms such as fever and sepsis. Therefore, once there is broken skin in the area affected by eczema, it is important to clean the wound promptly. If there are signs of pus formation, a specialist should examine and clean the wound, and oral anti-inflammatory medications may be necessary to prevent worsening of the infection. Also, dietary considerations should include avoiding spicy foods and those likely to cause allergies.

What to do if a child's eczema does not improve?

If childhood eczema is not improving, then it is crucial to actively search for the cause, rather than merely treating the symptoms. The care for childhood eczema mainly involves moisturizing and applying eczema ointment, but treating the primary cause is most important. The causes of eczema are varied, with common factors including genetics. If a child's parents have allergic rhinitis, eczema, or asthma, it suggests that the baby might have an allergic constitution, which can lead to recurrent episodes of eczema. Additionally, diet plays a role; consuming foods that are allergens can also trigger eczema flare-ups, especially foods containing proteins such as dairy products, eggs, and seafood products. Furthermore, contact with allergenic substances like animal dander and plant pollen can also induce eczema. Moreover, certain specific pathogens colonize on the surface of eczema-affected skin, leading to repeated outbreaks. These factors make the treatment of eczema less than ideal, so it is essential to understand the specific reasons behind the baby's eczema to tailor the treatment effectively.
