External factors

Contaminated air, poor quality food, water with chemical additives often affect people with weakened immunity. Daily skin care is required. Use purified water, only fresh and natural products.

Urticaria

Is called so because the rash looks like a reaction to injections of nettle - small tubercles that itch. The rash appears immediately after contact with the allergen. The most basic pathogens: nettle and other poisonous plants, insect bites, ultraviolet rays.

Sometimes the tubercles join together, forming extensive spots with uneven edges:

Dermatitis

A rash occurs as a result of direct contact with the allergen: metal compounds, household chemicals, construction and finishing materials, non-natural fabrics. May occur immediately after exposure, sometimes after prolonged exposure to the allergen. The rash has the form of watery tubercles, which cause discomfort. Blisters can leave behind soaked erosion.

For severe form of dermatitis, antihistamines are used. But usually it is possible to get rid of irritation with the help of ointments.

Eczema

Represents rough, dry patches. Pinkish irritation as it develops changes color to bard. The eruption is usually exposed to the top layer of skin on the face and on the outside of the palm. Zinc-containing agents are used for treatment.

The most frequently asked question for eczema: how long does the rash go? The question arises from the fact that such a reaction is really difficult to cure, patience and time will be needed.

Neurodermatitis

This is a recurrent chronic disease. It represents nodules, plaques of the crust from pink to dull color. The causes of the formation are mainly internal diseases( upset of the gastrointestinal tract, chronic infections, worms).When treatment is first eliminated the cause of the formation, and then for the skin use special ointments, for example, wound-healing.

Treatment

In the treatment of any type of rash, both folk remedies and medications are used. For example, antihistamine tablets. In severe forms of rashes it is necessary to consult a specialist. Perhaps, hormones will be needed. It is important in the process of treatment to limit contact with substances that cause skin irritation.
