Allergic reactions. What is their danger?
Sometimes it happens that quite suddenly rashes appear on the body in the form of red spots, which disappear just as quickly. Most likely, this may be an allergic reaction caused by the use of certain products. Citrus fruits most often become provocateurs of allergies; chocolate and nuts are not excluded. The use of exotic products, such as spices, often leads to such an unpleasant state when blisters on the skin itch. An allergic reaction that starts harmlessly often leads to a life-threatening condition. To avoid the secondary appearance of spots, you need to establish control over your
diet. Food allergies are a fairly common occurrence. To prevent its exacerbation, it is necessary to avoid excessive consumption of sweet, smoked, salty or fatty foods. Even when the symptoms disappear quickly enough, consultation with an allergist remains relevant to help identify foods that can cause allergies.
Other Reasons Why Itchy Blisters
Various medications, vitamin complexes (group B, C) also pose a threat of an allergic reaction.
Stress can also lead to a situation where the blisters on the body itch. If the result of nervous overexcitation is such a skin reaction, then there is a need for the help of a neurologist.
The cause of this kind of spots can be a serious skin disease. These include ringworm, psoriasis, or eczema. The true reason that the red blisters on the body itch, can only be established by a dermatologist. Only a specialist doctor can be prescribed the correct and necessary treatment. In order to avoid possible complications when using improper therapy, it is strictly forbidden to engage in self-medication. It is also unacceptable to resort to lotions or compresses in such situations.
Watery bubbles on the body
Watery vesicles are a characteristic of infectious diseases such as chicken pox, shingles. Chicken pox is more likely to affect children. Typical for this disease is that on the body the various stages of the appearance of the rash are indicated:
- Papules.
- Bubbles
- The formation of crusts and scars.
A person with smallpox ceases to pose a danger to others only when the vesicles are covered with a crust.
Bubbles on the body appear during infection with the herpes virus. They deliver pronounced discomfort to the patient, not only because they disrupt general well-being, cause pain, but also because the blisters on the body itch.
Treatment and prevention of blisters
Treatment and the amount of therapy will depend on the specific disease that led to the rash, on the location, the size of the rash, stage of the disease and other factors. With food allergies, it will be enough to establish control over the diet and exclude the product that causes it from the diet.
The course of therapy for neurological disorders involves the use of sedatives, which will help improve the general condition of the patient.
Skin diseases will require a longer treatment, during which, in addition to tablets (antihistamines, hormones), creams and ointments are used.
If the blisters on the body itch, you must first turn to either a dermatologist or an infectious disease specialist.
