Can eczema heal on its own?

Eczema is a disease that cannot heal itself. If the bacteria on the wound are not cleaned in time, the area of ​​eczema will expand and the pain will be unbearable. Therefore, when encountering eczema, we can use alcohol for sterilization and disinfection, and then apply Qianzicao skin ointment to relieve the symptoms of eczema. To treat a disease like eczema, we need to use a combination of medication and diet. The diet should be light to avoid skin irritation.

Eczema is an itchy and severely inflammatory skin reaction caused by a variety of internal and external factors. The skin lesions of eczema are generally polymorphic, mainly consisting of erythema, papules, and papulovesicles. The rash is obvious in the center and gradually spreads to the surrounding areas. It has unclear boundaries, is diffuse, and tends to exude. Eczema is divided into three stages: acute, subacute and chronic according to the manifestation of skin lesions. In the acute phase, the skin lesions are severely itchy and have a tendency to exude; in the subacute phase, the skin lesions are mainly small papules, scabs and scales, with only a small amount of papulovesicles and erosions, and there is still severe itching; in the chronic phase, the skin lesions are infiltrated, hypertrophic, brown-red or pigmented, with a rough surface, covered with scales, or scabs formed due to scratching.

Causes of Eczema

After clarifying what kind of disease eczema is, if you want to know whether eczema can be cured by itself, you also need to pay attention to the causes of eczema. Internal causes include chronic digestive system diseases, mental stress, insomnia, excessive fatigue, mood changes, endocrine disorders, infection, metabolic disorders, etc.; external factors include living environment, climate change, food, etc.; external stimuli such as sunlight, cold, dryness, heat, hot water washing, and various animal furs, plants, cosmetics, soaps, artificial fibers, etc. can all induce eczema. In short, eczema is a delayed allergic reaction caused by complex internal and external factors.

Is it self-healing and what are the treatment methods?

Because the causes of eczema are complex and it is prone to recurrence even after improvement through treatment, many patients question whether eczema can be cured, and are even more at a loss as to whether eczema can heal on its own. Experts tell us that eczema usually cannot heal itself, but it can be cured through scientific treatment. In terms of treatment, we first need to look for possible predisposing factors, such as work environment, living habits, diet, hobbies, mood changes, and the presence or absence of chronic visceral organ diseases. After finding the triggering factors, in addition to avoiding them, you should also take antihistamines orally to relieve itching. Topical medications can use glucocorticoids, such as the green version of Sanjiu Dermatitis Cream, which has a good effect on the itching symptoms caused by eczema. Its main ingredient, mometasone furoate, has anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and antipruritic effects. The hormone composition is more advanced, with lower side effects and better effects, making it safe and reliable for the treatment of eczema.

In addition to proper treatment, prevention is also important for eczema. Patients with eczema should try to avoid factors that may cause eczema. Avoid various external stimuli, such as washing with hot water, excessive scratching, washing and contact with substances that may cause allergies such as fur preparations; avoid contact with chemical products such as soap, laundry detergent, detergent, etc.
