Psoriasis cannot be cured. Treatment of psoriasis generally includes glucocorticoid, vitamin D derivatives, retinoids, immunosuppressants, antibiotics, immunomodulators and traditional Chinese medicine. It is suggested to go to the hospital to choose the appropriate treatment according to the specific condition; Pay attention to avoid catching a cold and rest on weekdays; Avoid spicy stimulation of hair and drinking alcohol; Maintain emotional stability, and prohibit external drugs with strong irritation in the progressive period. Usually pay attention to skin moisturizing.
Generally, diseases with the word "tinea" are caused by fungal or bacterial infections, which are difficult to treat and infectious, such as onychomycosis, tinea cruris and tinea corporis. But don't misunderstand psoriasis. Although psoriasis is also called tinea, it is not contagious, because psoriasis is not caused by infection, but an autoimmune disease, which is a chronic skin inflammation caused by inappropriate reaction of immune cells in the body.
The most common symptoms of psoriasis are dandruff, membrane and bleeding. Most people will start with a rash the size of a needle or mung bean, which usually appears on the scalp, the back of the hand and the front of the leg. Then these little rashes will grow up slowly or connect together. The surface of the rash is white dander. After the dander falls off, a thin film will appear on the skin, which may bleed when touched lightly.
In addition, some patients with psoriasis will have joint symptoms, the most common manifestation is the swelling and pain of the small joints of fingers and toes, which will be deformed and stiff after a long time. This is similar to the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, which is easy to be misdiagnosed and needs more professional examination.
Very few patients will cause psoriasis due to improper medication. At this time, the patient's skin will become almost all red, like an ocean quickly occupied by red algae.
The recurrence of psoriasis should be prevented.
adjust one's mindset
As the saying goes, skin is the expression organ of psychological activities, and mental stress is one of the common pathogenic factors of psoriasis. Many young people are tired from work. After learning that they have psoriasis, they are more likely to be anxious and depressed under the influence of traditional ideas. At this time, we should pay attention to treat it with a normal heart, combine work and rest, and don't be overly nervous.
Take measures to prevent infection
Although psoriasis is not caused by infection, bacterial infections in other tissues and organs can induce psoriasis, so people at risk of recurrence should try to avoid upper respiratory tract infections such as colds, tonsillitis and pharyngitis. Eat less unclean food to prevent enteritis and diarrhea. Once you get sick, you should treat it in time to avoid aggravating psoriasis.
Stop scratching! Psoriasis is easy to break, take a bath with warm water, and don't rub it hard. Forced peeling will cause local infection and prolong the course of disease.
