The most common cause of neurodermatitis is nervous system dysfunction

Neurodermatitis is a chronic skin disease. The main cause is the dysfunction of the nervous system. Local skin irritation and some diseases can cause neurodermatitis, which can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine.

1. Nervous system dysfunction

The onset of neurodermatitis is mainly caused by dysfunction of the nervous system and disorder of control of the inhibition and excitation functions of the cerebral cortex. The disease is often triggered, aggravated, or recurred due to factors such as mood swings, excessive mental stress, depression, and changes in living environment.

2. Local irritation factors

When local skin of the body is stimulated by adverse factors, it can also induce the onset of neurodermatitis, such as stimulation from hard clothing, stimulation from contact with chemicals, scratching, mosquito bites and even sunlight, etc.

3. Other disease factors

Common disease factors that can cause neurodermatitis include gastrointestinal dysfunction, endocrine system abnormalities, and various chronic lesion infections in the body, all of which may become causative factors of neurodermatitis.

4. TCM's understanding of neurodermatitis: emotional injury causes this disease

Because of emotional frustration, the heart is upset and cannot relax, which eventually leads to the internal generation of heart fire. The heat is hidden in the blood, causing blood heat. The excessive blood heat fills the meridians, so the red rash can be seen. Because blood heat can easily generate wind, and excessive wind leads to dryness, the skin will itch constantly, and dry dandruff will develop, which is the cause of this disease.

Disease caused by external wind evil

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "wind is the root of all diseases and is prone to change." If the sleeping and living habits are not adjusted properly, the external wind evil will attack and accumulate in the skin and turn into heat, causing the blood to become strong and the meridians to be filled up, resulting in a red rash. If the wind evil lurks in the skin for a long time, it can lead to disharmony of the meridians, making the disease protracted and difficult to treat.
