Can I use cold compresses on my skin allergies?

Cold compress is a very effective way to relieve symptoms such as itching, redness and swelling caused by skin allergies. However, not all skin allergies can be treated with cold compresses. This is because there are many causes of skin allergies, and only by finding out the specific causes of skin allergies can the symptoms be relieved accordingly. For example, stop contacting or eating allergens, improve the body's resistance, etc.

Skin allergies can usually be treated with ice to help relieve symptoms. Antihistamines can also be taken. Avoid spicy food, alcohol and other irritating foods, as well as seafood such as fish and shrimp that are prone to cause allergies.

Skin allergies are also called "sensitive" skin. From a medical point of view, skin allergy mainly refers to when the skin is exposed to various stimuli such as adverse reactions to cosmetics, chemicals, pollen, certain foods, polluted air, etc., causing abnormal phenomena such as redness, itching, peeling and allergic dermatitis. Sensitive skin can be said to be unstable skin, a skin that is always on high alert. Pay special attention to its care. The main symptoms of skin allergies are redness, swelling, dryness, desquamation, itching, tightness, blisters, small bumps, and small red spots.

The causes of skin allergies include internal factors and external factors. The internal factor is the allergic constitution itself, which plays a leading role in the onset of skin allergies. Early and thorough desensitization is the key to treating skin allergies and preventing recurrence.

There are many external factors as well. Including diet, inhaled substances, climate, contact with allergens and other factors. Among them, seafood, protein, spicy food, alcohol, inhalation of pollen, dust mites, cold weather, contact with chemicals, soaps, detergents, etc. are the most common causes of skin allergies. Due to such complex reasons, skin allergies recur repeatedly due to the interweaving of numerous causes and inducing factors.
