1, shave before sticking plaster.
Sometimes shaving is not for beauty, but to better ensure the effect of plaster.
Everyone may have this feeling that it is easier to put plaster on the back and other places with less hair than on the legs with dense hair. This is because hair may hinder application.
When sticking plaster, shave off your hair or try to avoid places with too much hair, otherwise it won't stick, and it will hurt if you tear it off. When shaving, the range should be slightly larger than the application range of plaster. Shave off your hair gently to avoid damaging your skin.
In addition to hair, the cleanliness of the skin surface will also affect the effect of the plaster. It is suggested to wipe and dry the skin of the affected area or acupoint with a hot towel or ginger before sticking the plaster, so as to remove the blockage on hair follicle, stratum corneum and sebaceous gland. This is beneficial to drug absorption and avoids secondary infection.
In addition, it should be noted that the plaster should not be attached to the head and face, especially near the eyes, mouth and nose. If papules and severe itching appear on local skin after application, you should suspect allergy, stop application and carry out antiallergic treatment. After removing the covering film, it is forbidden to touch the medicinal parts of the plaster by hand to avoid pollution.
2, plaster allergy treatment.
1, a few people are sensitive to the ingredients of the plaster, or the plaster has been stuck for several days, and the local skin is not cleaned. The ingredients in the plaster may invade the depths of the skin through sweat pores, causing local itching and even rash.
2. Gently massage outside the plaster when it itches. If it can't be relieved, take off the plaster, apply alcohol or white vinegar to the itchy place, and then heat the plaster.
3. If blisters, ulcers and severe itching appear on the affected part. It shows that if you are allergic to this plaster, you should remove the plaster and stop using it, then disinfect the affected area with alcohol, wrap it with gauze and treat it with oral antiallergic drugs or topical hormone ointment.
4. When buying plaster, it is best for patients with allergic history to choose products with air holes, which is convenient for the skin to breathe and breathe, so as not to be stuffy and itchy.
5. Plasters have certain timeliness, generally 12 hours or 24 hours. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate the time of removing the plaster when sticking it, so as to avoid allergic reaction after sticking it for too long.
6. Before sticking the plaster, wipe the affected area with a towel dipped in warm water, and then stick the plaster on the skin after drying.
7. If blisters appear in the affected area, stop using the plaster first, so as to avoid inflammation caused by blisters bursting and infection. The surface should be disinfected with alcohol, and plaster should be applied after the situation improves.
8. If the allergic situation is serious, you can take some anti-allergic drugs orally and apply some plasters externally to the affected area to relieve allergic symptoms.
Plaster also has a good effect on diseases. Plaster is a transdermal drug, and its effect is not as fast as oral medicine. But for local diseases, such as scapulohumeral periarthritis, lumbar disc herniation, orthopedic diseases, chronic respiratory diseases and so on, plaster is the best treatment. Some people are allergic to certain substances in plaster, but they usually disappear by themselves.
