What should I do if rosacea recurrently flares up?
Rose acne is a type of chronic inflammatory skin disease that can manifest as recurrent symptoms. It requires anti-inflammatory symptomatic treatment, enhanced skin cleansing, and moisturizing care, and the coordinated use of soothing and moisturizing dermatological products. Sun protection is necessary, and spicy and irritating foods should be avoided. Oral medications such as cetirizine tablets, total paeony glycoside capsules, hydroxychloroquine sulfate tablets, and doxycycline hydrochloride capsules may be used. When necessary, retinoic acid drugs can be applied, and growth factor gel can be used topically to repair skin lesions. In addition to regular dietary habits, physical therapies such as yellow light irradiation should also be incorporated.
Can common warts be removed by soaking in vinegar?
Common warts are infections caused by the human papillomavirus, commonly known as "prickly warts." Using vinegar to soak them is ineffective. It is necessary to enhance local cleanliness, with physical treatment methods being the first choice, such as cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen or combined photodynamic therapy. Treatments may also include laser or surgical options, supported by immunological aids, such as oral thymopentin enteric capsules, and possibly supplemented by Avi A to promote the regression of the warts. Additionally, topical applications of interferon gel and tazarotene cream help inhibit viral replication and soften the keratin layer, respectively. Treatment usually requires about three to four weeks, with follow-up visits every one to two weeks. The cryotherapy can be administered in multiple sessions to prevent picking and the formation of injuries. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a physician.)
How to treat dry and itchy skin?
For dry skin accompanied by itching, which is diagnosed as dry eczema, it is necessary to enhance skin moisturizing care, drink more water, and timely use medical skin care products such as soft moisturizing cream after bathing with warm water. It is encouraged to drink Ophiopogon japonicus, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and a moderate amount of nuts, avoid spicy, stimulating, and fried foods, and take oral medications such as cetirizine tablets, moisturizing and anti-itch capsules, vitamin B1 tablets, and vitamin E. For itchy areas of the skin, topical application of dampness-removing and itch-relieving cream, heparin sodium cream, and other medications can be used. The key is to strengthen the daily repair of the skin barrier and reduce the use of alkaline substances. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a physician.)
How to treat suppurative paronychia?
Paronychia is a bacterial infection that requires enhanced cleaning of the nail groove and administration of anti-infection symptomatic treatment. Rest, a light diet, and nutritional support are important. Oral or intravenous antibiotics should be used, with cephalosporins recommended. Additionally, combating anaerobic bacteria is necessary. This can be coordinated with surgical dressing changes and local treatment. Iodine disinfection may be employed, and incision and drainage may be necessary to promote pus discharge. Ichthyol ointment may also be used to help draw out the pus. During treatment, increased water intake and improved cleanliness and care of the nail groove are recommended, along with avoiding dirty water to aid recovery.
Can psoriasis be cured?
Psoriasis is a type of chronic inflammatory skin disease, with the plaque type being the most common and is treatable. However, symptoms can recur, often worsening in winter and improving in summer. It requires enhanced skin cleansing and moisturizing care, a light diet, supplementation with vitamins and high-quality proteins, and the oral intake of medications such as total glucosides of peony capsules, tripterygium glycoside tablets, folic acid tablets, as well as indigo naturalis psoriasis capsules or curcuma psoriasis tablets. Topical tacalcitol ointment should be applied to the affected skin, combined with physical treatments like narrow-band ultraviolet light therapy. Some cases may require medicated baths or treatment with retinoic acid medications, particularly for special types of psoriasis such as erythrodermic, pustular, and psoriatic arthritis types. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a physician.)
What should I do if my skin is itchy and oozing yellow fluid?
For skin itchiness accompanied by symptoms like oozing yellow fluid, which align with changes seen in eczema, it is necessary to enhance skin cleanliness and provide symptomatic treatment with anti-allergy and anti-inflammatory measures. Avoid spicy, stimulating foods and seafood products, and reinforce local cleanliness to prevent secondary infections. Apply a 3% boric acid solution externally, and after the surface liquid has dried, further apply Clobetasol Propionate Econazole Cream. Take orally Mycostatin sustained-release tablets, Total Glucosides of Paeony Capsules, and Tripterygium Wilfordii Polyglycosides Tablets, among other medications. If the condition is severe, an intramuscular injection of Compound Betamethasone can be administered to control the situation until the skin lesions stabilize, after which non-steroidal categories should be used. (Note: Use of medications should be conducted under the guidance of a physician.)
Is the recurrence rate of common warts high?
Common warts, commonly known as verruca vulgaris, are infectious due to human papillomavirus infection and have a high recurrence rate. For example, warts occurring on the feet are called plantar warts, which often have a long disease course and require multiple cryotherapy treatments, even more than ten times, and can recur and reoccur. It is necessary to enhance skin cleanliness, avoid external factors such as injuries, and provide active and effective antiviral treatment and immunomodulatory supportive symptomatic treatment. Early intervention with physical treatments, such as cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen, laser treatment, or even surgical removal of the wart, can be combined with oral medications like thymosin enteric capsules and topical interferon gel to suppress virus replication.
