How can eczema be severe?

First of all, acute eczema, as the name suggests, has a short attack time. It occurs in our face, ears, hands, feet, forearms, legs and other exposed parts. It may be related to the exposed parts contacting more allergens outside. In serious cases, needless to say, from the visible parts, it diffuses all over the body.

The most common lesions of acute eczema are miliary sized papules and papules, and severe "small blisters". And the occurrence of these papules, blisters are often fused into a piece, which is also a serious sign. Eczema makes people want to scratch and scratch all the time. Even though we all know it's not good, we can't help but scratch and scratch, and the serous oozes out. But after the scratch, the risk of infection and so on is greatly increased.

Serious point, secondary infection, the formation of pustules, pus scab, fever and other symptoms can appear; If it is a viral infection, such as herpes virus infection, it may form severe herpetic eczema. This is a manifestation of aggravation of symptoms, but it is not simple eczema, the treatment needs anti infection or anti-virus.

matters needing attention

In addition to subacute eczema, it is generally due to the gradual development of the course of disease after the acute eczema inflammation is alleviated or handled improperly. At this time, the symptoms of "redness and swelling" are more common. Most of the papules slowly fuse and become pieces, but they are not cured. The exudation may be alleviated, and it is always a "embarrassing" state. If it doesn't heal, it becomes chronic eczema.
