Flare-ups can be one of the most frustrating parts ofatopic dermatitis (AD), also referred to aseczema.
Even when you follow a consistent prevention plan with a good skin care routine, a bad flare-up can still set you back.
您可以通过了解使您的广告恶化的原因来最大程度地减少爆炸的频率和严重性。触发因素是使您的皮肤反应,使其干燥,片状或发红和红色的东西。
触发器可以是内部的,这意味着它们来自您的体内或外部,这意味着它们来自您的身体与之接触的东西。
External triggers, like allergens and irritants, may make contact with your skin and start a flare-up. Internal triggers, like food allergies and stress, may cause an increase in inflammation in the body that leads to a bad rash.
意识到不同的AD触发因素是管理症状的关键。在爆发时,可以注意内部和外部条件。您了解导致症状的原因越好,避免它们就越容易。
当您与身体刺激物接触时,您的皮肤可能会立即开始发痒或灼伤。您的皮肤也可能变成红色。
There are many commonhousehold和environmentalirritants that may trigger AD flares including:
- wool
- 合成纤维
- soaps, detergents, cleaning supplies
- dust and sand
- cigarette smoke
You may experience an AD flare-up when you’re in a new environment with different irritants. For example, if you’re staying at a hotel that uses a harsh detergent on the linens, you might experience a flare-up of your facial AD.
The soaps in public restrooms can also cause flares for many people.
Pollen, animal dander, mold, and dust mites can make AD symptoms worse.
尝试使您的房屋和工作环境保持自由过敏原as possible. This may involve daily vacuuming and washing fabrics, like blankets and sheets, often.
如果您对霉菌和灰尘敏感,则可能会发现二手书店,图书馆和老式商店都是触发因素。如果您不能在图书馆不花时间在图书馆里刮擦皮肤,则可能需要找到一个新的工作或学习场所。
Heat, humidity, and temperature changes can all trigger AD flare-ups.
Taking a hot bath or shower can be a trigger. Hot water makes your skin’s oil break down faster and leads to a loss of moisture. Just one shower in excessively hot water can cause a flare-up for people with AD.
As part of your daily routine, replenish the moisture to your skin after a shower or bath using lotion, cream, or ointment.
Overheating when you’re outside or physically active can also cause a flare-up. If you feel yourself overheating on a hot day, find a shady or indoor spot to cool down.
Apply防晒霜if you know you’re going to be in the sun for an extended period of time.
晒伤会引起炎症,几乎肯定会导致广告爆发。如果您在运动过程中过热,请短暂休息并喝一些水以降低体温。
While food allergies don’t cause AD, they can trigger a flare-up.
Some foods can cause flare-ups just from making contact with the skin. Some of the mostcommon food allergensare milk, eggs, peanuts, wheat, soy, and seafood.
Of course, it can be difficult to accurately identify a food allergy on your own. Make a list of suspected food and then have your doctor do testing. Your doctor may run skin tests to rule out foods that aren’t triggers.
Testing positive for an allergen on a skin test doesn’t necessarily mean you’re allergic. There are many false positives, which is why it’s important for your doctor to conduct a food challenge.
在食品的挑战,你的医生会看你eat a certain food and look for signs of eczema to develop.
Remember that food allergies or sensitivities can change as you age, so you and your doctor may need to reevaluate your diet.
Talk to your doctor before considering eliminating entire food groups from your diet. You’ll want to get guidance to make sure you’re still taking in the nutrients your body needs to be healthy.
You may notice that your AD flares up during times of stress. This might be from daily stressors or at times when you’re frustrated, embarrassed, or anxious.
像愤怒一样的情绪会导致皮肤冲洗会触发瘙痒症状周期。
在压力时期,人体通过增加炎症做出反应。对于皮肤状况的人来说,这可能意味着红色,发痒的皮肤。
If you’re experiencing acute stress and find yourself starting to itch, try to take a step back. Before you soothe with scratching, try to stay calm by meditating or just stepping away for a quick walk.
当您的下一次爆发发生时,请考虑以上所有因素,看看是否可以确定触发器。
You may also want to go through the following mental checklist:
- 我是否在可能接触过新的过敏原或刺激物的新环境中度过了时间?
- 爆炸是否在特定活动中发生,例如清洁或锻炼?
- Did the flare-up happen when changing into a specific item of clothing, like a sweater or a new pair of socks?
- 我今天吃了不同的东西吗?
- Was I stressed or anxious about a specific event or relationship?
Having the answers to these questions will help you narrow down your list of possible AD triggers.
You can also take these answers to your next doctor’s appointment if you’re having trouble identifying your personal triggers.
