Why are we prone to allergies? How to prevent allergies

In real life, some people often have allergic symptoms, and they are also a member of the group of people who are prone to allergies. So, why are people prone to allergies?

The root causes of sensitive skin:

1. The skin's immunity is reduced due to the damage of skin cells, and the thinning of the stratum corneum leads to insufficient skin moisture, which eventually leads to the skin's barrier function being too weak to resist external stimuli. Then, the skin's nerve fibers are frequently stimulated by the outside world and become overly excited, which easily leads to redness, fever, itching, tingling, rashes and other discomforts. This type of discomfort is usually caused by the skin coming into contact with hormones.

2. It’s very simple. It’s due to genetic factors that make the skin extremely sensitive.

Precautions:

1. Remove dust mites: Mattresses, pillows and quilts can be wrapped with anti-mite covers, and the bedding covers should be washed with hot water above 70°C every week; the indoor humidity should be controlled below 50% to control the growth of dust mites and mold.

2. Avoid raising furry pets such as cats and dogs, as animal dander and excrement can easily cause allergies.

3. Maintain good household hygiene: keep your home environment clean to reduce the reproduction of cockroaches.

4. Clean up dead corners in the bathroom: mold is easy to grow in hot and humid environments, such as bathrooms and basements. Use dehumidifiers and air filters, and replace filters regularly to reduce the chance of exposure to mold and pollen; air conditioner filters also need to be cleaned frequently.

5. Prevent food allergies: Avoid eating foods that may cause allergic symptoms.
