In the organs of the human body, the skin is like a mirror, intuitively reflecting our state of health. It is not only the first line of physical resistance to external invasion, but it is an important sign of the overall health of the individual. From mild rashes to persistent chronic skin diseases, skin problems of all kinds can have a significant impact on quality of life. Therefore, it is essential to have an in-depth understanding of how to combat skin diseases.
Prevention of dermatological diseases is based on and essential to maintaining good hygiene practices. Day-to-day skin clean-up requires the selection of suitable clean products based on different skins, such as dry skin, which can use warm and fertilized face cream, and oily skin, which is suitable for cleaner, but not overly irritated, face-washing milk, to ensure clean skin balance with grease and prevent skin problems such as haemorrhoids caused by clogged fur holes. At the same time, in public places such as public baths, swimming pools, it is important to ensure that precautions are taken to avoid direct contact with public supplies that may contain pathogens and to reduce the risk of infection with fungal skin diseases (e.g., pyramids, gills).
A reasonable diet also has far-reaching effects on skin health. Foods rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants are known as “natural nutrients” in the skin. Vitamin C, E and beta-carrotin in fresh fruit and vegetables can effectively enhance skin resistance to oxidation, reduce skin aging and prevent wrinkles and colour formation, while nuts, high-quality fatty acids in fish can help maintain skin barriers and reduce skin drying and inflammation. Conversely, high sugar, high fat, high salt and spicy irritating foods may increase the fatting of the skin, stimulate skin sensitivity and induce or aggravate multiple skin diseases such as scabies, lipid spills, and rashes.
Furthermore, avoiding over-exposure to harmful environmental factors is an important step in the prevention of skin diseases. Ultraviolet rays in the sun are a major “natural enemy” to the skin, with long periods of unprotected sun, which are highly susceptible to skin sunburning and tanning, which accelerates skin ageing and increases the risk of skin cancer. Therefore, during outdoor activities, sunscreens should be worn in advance, suncaps, sunglasses and umbrellas, etc., and a full range of sunscreens should be provided. In addition, long-term exposure to highly polluting environments, such as industrial exhaust, car tail gas, dust, etc. can cause skin damage and cause skin allergy, inflammation, etc. Therefore, in fog weather or high-pollution environments, a protective mask should be worn to minimize outing, if necessary.
Early diagnosis and correct treatment are key to the treatment of dermatological diseases. In case of skin abnormalities, such as red spots, itching, rashes, grafts, etc., which cannot be taken lightly, they should be treated in a timely manner at a regular hospital. The doctor will make an accurate determination of the type of disease based on the symptoms, the history of the disease and the necessary laboratory examinations and develop individualized treatment programmes. For common skin inflammation diseases, such as rashes, contact pelvis, etc., anti-inflammation and itching treatments are usually provided using external sugar-coated hormonal ointment, calcium-based neurophosphate inhibitors, and for infectious skin diseases, such as sepsis caused by bacterial infections, scabies caused by fungi infections, etc., the treatment of anti-infection is targeted with antibiotics or antifluent drugs, while for chronic, persistent skin diseases, such as silver scabies and white fluents, combined with combination treatments such as phototherapy, oral immunotherapy, to control the development of the disease, mitigate symptoms and improve the quality of life of the patient.
In general, the fight against dermatological diseases is a comprehensive and long-term effort. By developing good personal hygiene practices, building a reasonable diet, effectively avoiding harmful environmental factors, as well as timely access to and compliance with medical instructions for the treatment of diseases, we can build a strong and healthy line of defence for the skin to keep it healthy and radiant at all times and enjoy a good life.
