How to identify them?
These are characterized by a red, itchy skin rash that can appear anywhere on the body. It is often located in skin folds such as behind the elbows or knees, on the neck, on the hands, or on another area that has been in contact with the causative agent. The reddish rash may burn, sting, or itch. Blisters may appear, and if scratched frequently, crusting may occur.
Most common allergies
Irritant contact dermatitis:
All symptoms may occur at the same time or only some may occur.
It is caused by an agent that, upon contact with the skin, generates a toxic effect similar to a burn and can lead to necrosis (more serious injuries such as tissue death). Clinical manifestations can vary depending on the concentration of the irritating chemical and the duration of exposure. Eighty percent of this dermatological condition is work-related.
Allergic contact dermatitis:
It is caused by an inflammatory reaction mediated by an allergen (a substance that can cause an allergy in a susceptible individual). It is much less common, accounting for 7% of occupational and adult skin diseases.
Atopic dermatitis:
It is an inflammatory response of the skin, caused by a genetic predisposition in individuals who are more prone to allergies. It is characterized by periods where symptoms appear and disappear intermittently. This allergy is most common in children and people with asthma, although it can also occur in adults.
Recommendations for good skin care
• Perform a good cleaning.
• Choose the most appropriate clothing. Preferably wear cotton clothing and avoid synthetic fabrics.
• Keep your skin moisturized, with oral hydration (enough water) and the daily use of creams, to prevent the appearance of skin lesions.
• Carefully select your daily soap. It's important to consider its ingredients to rule out allergies to the formula's components.
• Eliminate the use of fragrances when you have a skin condition.
• Avoid scratching to reduce injuries and prevent the risk of infection.
• Avoid contact with chemicals such as paints, solvents, and others.
• If the disease is already established, it can be treated with good hydration, topical anti-inflammatories, glucocorticoids and antihistamines.
If you experience daily skin pain or discomfort, or if you have implemented various health measures without seeing any improvement, it's best to see a doctor for specific treatment.
