The clinical manifestations of keratosis pilaris are dry skin, papules, roughness, and curled-up hairs in the hair follicles, which greatly affect the image. It feels bumpy to the touch and makes people feel very uncomfortable, especially girls who want to get rid of these things as soon as possible. However, patients are very distressed by having to remove the hair and have it grow again and again, so many patients now use traditional Chinese medicine to treat keratosis pilaris.

The causative agent of folliculitis is Staphylococcus aureus, which mainly occurs in patients with weakened immunity or diabetes. Scratching, skin damage, etc. allow the pathogens to invade the hair follicles and cause inflammation. It may be related to occupation or certain treatment factors. Frequent contact with tar-like substances, or long-term use of tar-like substances or corticosteroids, as well as frequent stimulation of the skin by friction, are all triggering factors of folliculitis.

According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, keratosis follicularis is mostly caused by internal accumulation of dampness and heat, which in turn fumigates the lungs and accumulates in the skin. When the evil toxins accumulate for a long time, they turn into heat. When the heat is too strong, the flesh rots and turns into pus. The pus and toxins flow and penetrate each other, causing folliculitis. It may be due to physical weakness, weak defenses, and exogenous heat toxins; or it may be due to unclean skin, which is invaded by wind toxins and causes external wind toxins.

Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine: According to the pathology of keratosis follicularis, which is caused by congenital deficiency, acquired malnutrition, liver and kidney yin deficiency, blood deficiency and wind dryness, and even the disharmony of the skin's nutrition and defense, the disease is treated with traditional Chinese medicine for internal and external application that has the effects of moisturizing the skin, activating the meridians and dispersing blood stasis, and dispelling wind and relieving itching, and the effect is very significant.

Generally, the prescriptions use Chinese medicinal materials such as raw rehmannia, ophiopogon japonicus, glossy privet fruit, eclipta herb, yam meat, white peony root, American ginseng, stir-fried atractylodes, tianzi tablets, scrophularia, safflower, processed Polygonum multiflorum, wolfberry, black sesame, Polygonum multiflorum, yam, schizonepeta, and saposhnikovia divaricata, which can improve the enzyme activity in the body and allow the active enzyme to penetrate into the skin follicles, thereby stabilizing the content of epidermal and free cholesterol. It plays an important role in the stability of cell membranes. It can effectively reduce the cholesterol sulfate in the epidermis and at the same time effectively adjust the metabolism of cholesterol, forming more cholesterol cream to eliminate hair follicle papules.

Chinese medicine prescriptions are prescribed based on individual physical differences and specific conditions of the disease, and can treat both the symptoms and the root cause. In order to speed up the treatment effect, Chinese medicine for external washing is usually used, including angelica, white peony, safflower, saposhnikovia, lithospermum, lard, cold cream and other medicinal materials.
