Lichen is a fairly common disease of the skin, otherwise expressed in modern language - an infectious “rout” of the upper cover of the epidermis. In all ages, people were wary of this "dirty" disease, and indeed, contrary to the concept that has developed, there are quite serious variations in the deprivation that have all the chances of unpleasant consequences. Thus, we will determine the most dangerous types of lichen for humans , methods of prevention and healing. Treatment of depriving a person requires a responsible approach.
Ringworm (cat lichen in humans) is rightfully considered the most common species. Many cases of infection occur in childhood and adolescence, less likely to affect people aged. This specific disease requires special attention to people with weak immunity and the presence of children's skin that is not able to confront the pathogen entering the body. The incubation period may depend on many factors and consequences: from 2 weeks to three to four months, again it depends on the body's ability to withstand infection. Diagnosing independently without the help of a ringworm doctor is extremely elementary. As a rule, lesions with a scalp - the head - are susceptible to damage, less often occurs on the smooth surface of the skin and extremely rarely on the nails. The foci are very similar to vesicles and the so-called nodules, if the lichen passes to the head, the affected area simply loses its hair. If you do not pay attention to the disease, expect the appearance of unpleasant sensations: the inflammatory process in the lymph nodes, Lyhoman and the general impotence of the body.
Treatment for a person having ringworm is as follows. To completely get rid of ringworm, antimycotic drugs are prescribed (for example, orungal, lamisil, nizoral, griseofulvin). With a ringworm form of the disease, local treatment is used: Wilkinson's ointment, sulfur-tar ointment, sulfur-salicylic and mycosolone. If the scalp is affected, you need to shave off the hair in the focus of the disease. Treating depriving a person in an unapproved form can be done at home.
The most dangerous type of lichen is shingles in humans, which is represented by a special viral infection, which can be activated at any time in the body. Reminds herpes of its symptoms. Its manifestations resemble spots and blistering rashes located on the spots themselves. In addition to trivial symptoms, headaches and chills can occur, less often - temperature. An infected person needs separate toilet articles and utensils. Avoid direct contact with diseased skin. Treatment of depriving a person of this type is often carried out inpatiently.
How can I treat a person having herpes zoster type with folk remedies:
• Lichen is allowed to burn once or twice a day with ointment from 100 g of honey and 1 tbsp. l garlic ash.
• If there is lichen, it is necessary to lubricate the affected areas 1-2 times a day with bread mixed with water and salt, or apply compresses from this mixture.
• Finely grind wood worm-wound, boil the powder in water, strain and pour over the whole body of the patient. Adults, after bathing, are obligated to smear the body with a cream made from a mix of wood powder and fresh pork fat in a ratio of 1: 4.
It is also recommended in the presence of shingles to bathe in a bath of infusion of chamomile and calendula. It is enough to boil water (2 liters) and pour in 4 tablespoons of chamomile and 2 tablespoons of calendula. You can also make lotions.
During the development of the disease, spicy foods should not be abused, you need to follow the diet: do not eat a lot of sweet, salty and sour.
