Three common dangers of hand eczema in men!

Eczema is also common in men. It most often appears on the hands. Once many men have eczema on their hands, they should seek treatment in time. Because eczema is a stubborn skin disease that is prone to recurrence and can cause great distress to patients. So, what are the health hazards of eczema?

Three common hazards of eczema

Eczema is a severe itchy dermatitis caused by a variety of internal and external factors. It is divided into three stages: acute, subacute, and chronic. The acute stage has an exudative tendency, while the chronic stage is infiltrative and hypertrophic. Some patients directly show chronic eczema. The skin lesions are characterized by polymorphism, symmetry, itching, and easy recurrence. It is still quite harmful to the body. Let's take stock below!

1. Unbearable itching

Eczema causes unbearable itching, which affects normal work and life. No matter which part of the body is affected by allergic eczema, the severe itching will bring great pain to the patient and even affect normal work and life. If it is not treated for a long time, it will also cause the patient to be depressed, irritable and have mental disorders.

2. Severe damage to the appearance

In the early or acute stage of eczema, the affected area has patches of erythema, dense or scattered small papules, or blisters that are difficult to see with the naked eye. In severe cases, there are large areas of exudate and erosion. In the subacute state, the exudate decreases and scabs form, and the affected area turns from bright red to dark red, without large areas of erosion. In the chronic state, the exudate is even less or completely dry and scabs form, which are often mixed with scales to form scaly scabs. The affected area is darker in color or has hyperpigmentation, and sometimes the pigmentation is reduced. Cracks are prone to occur in the skin texture, especially in areas with greater movement. These severe symptoms seriously affect the patient's appearance.

3. Increased psychological pressure

If eczema is not treated in time or the treatment method is unscientific, it will also lead to pigmentation or scars. Traditional Western medicine treatment of eczema cannot solve the root cause of eczema and allergens, and it is easy to relapse; long-term oral hormone drugs will have toxic side effects and great harm to the human body. The protracted and non-healing nature of eczema increases the psychological pressure of patients.

There are still many dangers of eczema, especially the three aspects mentioned above. Once you pay attention to them, for example, some people will experience increased psychological pressure, and some people's damage to the skin is still very serious, so you must pay more attention to it.
