What is urticaria?
In spring, with the change of climate, urticaria patients begin to enter the most difficult period of the year. During this period, people will be covered by strong winds from time to time. Many people are accompanied by itching from time to time, so scratch from time to time. The more they scratch, the more they itch, the more they scratch ... Urticaria goes hand in hand, which seriously affects the health and life of patients with urticaria, but they are helpless. It is really painful to the extreme.

Urticaria, commonly known as rash, is a localized edema reaction caused by the expansion and permeability of small blood vessels in skin and mucosa. Not only will it affect the appearance, but it will also bring unbearable itching, which is simply painful. This localized edema reaction caused by the expansion and permeability increase of small blood vessels in the skin and mucosa can subside within 2 ~ 24 hours, but a new rash appears repeatedly, and the condition is repeated for days or even months, which is extremely disgusting. So in the face of urticaria, how should we relieve the symptoms?

First, let's look at the causes of urticaria.

First, external reasons.

1, heavy taste. Many people like to eat "heavy taste" food. Eating too much of this greasy, salty and sweet food can easily induce allergic skin diseases such as urticaria, or aggravate the condition. Therefore, for people with allergies, spicy products should be avoided and the diet should be light. Patients with urticaria must avoid overeating.

2. Life is irregular. Under the pressure of life, if you can't have a good rest, it will naturally lead to physical problems. If friends are under great pressure all the year round and their lives are irregular, the endocrine systems of both men and women will be more or less disordered, and urticaria will naturally occur.

Step 3 scratch. Itching is the most common clinical symptom of dermatosis. When the skin itches, it will produce the desire to scratch. When itching is very uncomfortable, it is unrealistic not to scratch at all, but excessive scratching will aggravate skin diseases. At the same time of treatment, we should try to avoid scratching, and take medicine or apply medicine to relieve itching in time when itching is serious.

4. Lack of care during treatment. The causes of urticaria recurrence are very complicated. Urticaria patients should not only insist on correct treatment, but also do a good job in nursing, which can reduce the recurrence rate of the disease. Improper nursing during treatment can also lead to disease recurrence, so patients should adhere to correct nursing, which can reduce the recurrence rate of the disease.

Second, internal factors.

1, immune imbalance. Immunologists have found that the real allergic problem is immune function. There are allergen antibodies on immune cells, which are permanent. Therefore, whenever an allergen comes, it will combine with the IGE antibody on immunoglobulin to produce an allergic reaction combining antigen and antibody. If you want to reduce allergic reactions, you must reduce allergens or allergic IGE antibodies. Allergens are exogenous substances that can't be controlled, but as long as the IGE antibody of allergens is reduced, the IGE antibody can be reduced.

2. taking drugs. Drug abuse leads to the aggravation of urticaria everywhere. In particular, the abuse of hormonal drugs is prone to dependence and recurrent urticaria. If hormone drugs are used for treatment, the early treatment effect will be better. Once the drug is stopped, it is often easy to relapse and even aggravate the condition.

According to the cause, what measures can we take to alleviate the symptoms of urticaria?

1, find out the allergen.

First of all, carefully recall whether you have been exposed to certain substances, such as pets, paints, drugs, etc. , exposure, exposure time, contact mode, whether there is a similar rash in the past. Analyze which substance may be related to it, and once the cause of allergy is found, avoid touching the substance again.

2. Adjust immunity and improve allergy treatment.

You can take anti-allergic drugs for urticaria treatment, but you can't take them all the time. Anti-allergic drugs have the effect of calming the brain, and it is easy to feel sleepy after taking them. Taking these drugs for a long time is not good for your health. Therefore, the key to treat urticaria is to adjust immunity and allergic constitution.

Medical research institutions have found that Xin, Min and Kang anti-allergic probiotics can reduce serum IGE antibody, regulate immune function and enhance the anti-allergic ability of the body. Fundamentally improving the immune antiallergic function and improving the allergic constitution plays an important role in reducing the incidence of allergic diseases.

Allergic probiotics can participate in IgE-mediated immune allergic reaction. By measuring the effect of Th 1 immunity on interleukin (IL- 12) secretion after co-culture of human dendritic cells and antiallergic probiotics, an antiallergic probiotic strain with antiallergic ability was screened out, and the ecological balance of intestinal microorganisms in the largest immune organ of human body was improved by using active and non-pathogenic microorganisms. And improve the immune tolerance function, and the contained Lactobacillus salivarius has the international patent certification of reducing serum IgE allergic antibody. After continuous supplementation for more than three months, the concentration of IgE in the body decreased, so that allergens could not combine with IgE antibodies in the body, and thus allergic series of biochemical reactions no longer occurred. Therefore, Xin, Min and Kang probiotics can resist IgE antibodies and regulate allergic constitution, while drugs can only relieve symptoms, but not regulate allergic constitution. The effective combination of anti-allergic drugs and anti-IgE antibody immunotherapy with anti-allergic probiotics can also produce ideal rehabilitation effect, which can eventually shorten the onset time of allergic diseases and reduce the recurrence rate of allergies.

Step 3 pay attention to your diet

Diet should be light, eat less oily, cold, spicy and other irritating foods, because these foods will cause great harm to sensitive skin; Try not to eat foods that are easy to cause allergies, such as seafood, shellfish, onions, garlic, onions, leeks, mutton and so on. You should also avoid drinking alcohol.

4. Strengthen daily care.

Reduce external stimuli. Factors such as too cold, too hot or too strong ultraviolet rays will stimulate the affected skin, leading to aggravation of the disease. Patients with urticaria must pay attention to sun protection at ordinary times, and pay attention to increasing clothes appropriately when it is cold to prevent colds and urticaria from getting worse.

Ensure a certain amount of sleep and rest, and do not participate in sports activities during the attack; In remission period, you can participate in appropriate outdoor activities to enhance the mechanism immunity, but you should avoid strenuous exercise.

Pay attention to keep indoor ventilation and proper temperature and humidity, and avoid cold air stimulation and contact with allergic dust mites, pollen, fur, food and drugs. And avoid second-hand smoke.
