For the majority of the population, sun tan is a pleasant enjoyment that promotes the synthesis of vitamin D and benefits physical and mental health. However, the sun tan needs to be exceptionally cautious for people with systemic red-coloured lupus.
Systematic red hemorrhoids are a self-immunizing disease, and patients ‘ immune systems wrongly attack their tissues and organs. Among them, UV is considered to be one of the major factors in the onset or exacerbation of disease. Ultraviolet rays in the sun, especially UVA and UVB, can penetrate the skin, damage the DNA in the skin cell, and cause the organism to produce a large amount of its own antibody, which in turn causes a series of symptoms, such as skin red spots, joint pains, and damage to dirty organs.
But that does not mean that the patient must completely eliminate the sun. In fact, proper and safe sun suns are also necessary for patients to maintain a certain state of health. For example, during periods of stable conditions, occasional short-term exposure to sunlight can help patients to improve their moods and prevent osteoporosis. So, how do you do the scientific sun? First is the choice of time. Every effort should be made to avoid the strongest UV period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. It is possible to choose when the morning sun is softer, e.g. 7-9 points, or 1-2 hours before sunset, when UV intensity is relatively low and skin irritation is smaller.
Second, the length of sun tan is also strictly controlled. At the initial stage, the patient is given 5 – 10 minutes per sun, which can then increase in accordance with his or her own tolerance, but generally not more than 30 minutes. In the course of sunbathing, if the skin is indisposed with red, itching, pain, etc., it should stop immediately and return to the room to avoid direct sunlight.
Besides, there’s a lot of tan. Patients should, as far as possible, avoid direct exposure to sunlight of exposed and thinner parts of the face, neck, arm, etc. The choice is to wear long-sleeved clothing, wide-side hats and sunglasses, and to allow proper sunlight exposure only to relatively patient parts such as hands and feet. The use of an umbrella could further reduce UV exposure if longer trips were required.
In addition, the use of appropriate sunscreen measures is essential. Even when sunbath is allowed, the patient should wear sunscreen. Select a sunscreen that is high and has a wide range of sunscreen protection (which is both resistant to UVA and UVB) and ensure that the full amount is evenly painted, repeated every 2 – 3 hours. For some skin-sensitive patients, a small area of skin can be tested to see if there is an allergy before being used in large areas.
Before and after sunbath, patients are also required to provide skin care. Some moist lactation can be properly painted before sunbath to enhance skin barriers. After sunbath, the skin is washed with water in time to remove dust and sunscreen residues from the skin surface, and then the skin is painted with a relaxing and repairing effect to help the skin recover.
Systematic red erythalamus sun-burning requires the development of individualized sun-burning programmes under the guidance of a doctor, taking into account his/her condition and state of health. Only in this way will it be possible to maximize the physical damage caused by ultraviolet light while enjoying the benefits of sunlight, to maintain stability and to improve the quality of life.
