Some people are mad with allergies, some people are mad with allergies

Allergy is a kind of big or small disease. According to statistics, about 22% of the world's population suffers from allergic diseases. The allergic reactions of most patients include skin pimples, red eyes, runny nose, sneezing and other symptoms, but in severe cases, dyspnea, shock and even death may occur.

In addition to the common pollen allergy, dust mite allergy, drug allergy, food allergy, etc., there are some people have more "strange" allergens, so it is called "strange allergy constitution", such as emotional allergy we are going to talk about today.

Emotional hypersensitivity is a psychosomatic disease .When people are in tension, pressure, anger and other emotions, they will repeatedly appear erythema, itching and other skin allergy symptoms, this situation is called "emotional allergy".

A series of studies have shown that skin is the organ most affected by internal and external factors. Skin is closely related to emotion, psychology and nervous system in embryonic origin, biology, growth and development.

Emotional hypersensitivity is a psychosomatic disease, which is closely related to stress and emotion. Long-term mental stress, emotional excitement, staying up late, great pressure, irregular sleep, the body will release a large amount of norepinephrine, adrenaline, etc., causing vascular contraction, blood pressure rise, and then produce a large number of free radicals, attack mast cells that can release allergic factors, leading to allergic symptoms. In addition, some neurotransmitters are released by the skin during emotional ups and downs, exacerbating allergic reactions.

Therefore, a sudden increase in pressure, usually easy to cause urticaria isokinetic hypersensitivity reaction; And repeated mood fluctuations, it is easy to appear atopic dermatitis and other delayed hairstyle hypersensitivity reaction.

Emotional allergy or with physical, personality, on the one hand, emotional allergy is more people are allergic constitution, genetic factors are the internal cause of allergy, if itself is not allergic constitution, all kinds of emotional problems can only make people produce psychological diseases, such as depression, anxiety and so on.

On the other hand, overly sensitive, introverted people; Or for their own excessive attention, the body a little change is particularly nervous; Negative personality, negative emotion more people, are particularly prone to emotional allergy.

In addition, the patient's past life experience may also induce emotional allergy, such as the patient's family/friends have appeared emotional allergy, which left a deep impression on the patient's mind, once the patient's own similar situation, will magnify this worry, and increase the pressure.

How to treat emotional allergy?

When patients have allergic symptoms, they should go to the allergy department or dermatology department of the hospital in time to determine the allergen through examination.

Emotional hypersensitivity should be considered if allergic symptoms continue to recur after being removed from allergens and receiving antiallergic treatment, or there is no improvement for more than a week after allergic treatment.

And other allergic conditions, through the use of anti-allergic drugs, it is often difficult to effectively ease the emotional symptoms, is the so-called "heart still must heart medicine cure", for emotional irritability, need to improve sleep, relieve stress and adjusting psychological state to ease, at ordinary times life also should pay attention to control your bad mood, try to make yourself pleasant state.

In psychological treatment, the doctor will comfort, enlighten or take hint, hypnosis and other therapies, if necessary, will also use some drugs to treat emotional diseases, to help patients relieve anxiety, tension and other emotions.

Repeated skin allergy symptoms can make people fidgety, and emotional allergy and most like to work against people, the more anxious you are, the more arrogant it is, so the treatment process must be patient, try to relax, maintain an optimistic and positive attitude, do not be impatient.

How to improve allergic constitution?

Whether emotional allergy, or other allergies, I believe we are very concerned about a problem: can allergies be cured?

I regret to say: no. There is also a genetic predisposition to allergies. Studies show that if both parents are allergic, more than 50% of the children are allergic; Only the mother is allergic constitution, the probability of the child allergic constitution is 50%; Only the father is allergic, and the probability of the child's allergic constitution is 30%.

However, although allergies cannot be cured, they can be relieved. On the one hand, finding your allergen and staying away from it as much as possible can greatly reduce the occurrence of allergic reactions.

On the other hand, desensitization treatment can also be carried out under the guidance of doctors. After determining the allergen, patients can be stimulated for a long time with a gradually increasing dose of allergen extract, which can improve the adaptability of patients to the allergen, so that patients can reduce symptoms or even no symptoms after exposure to the allergen again.

Desensitization treatment cycle generally needs 3 to 5 years, the success rate is about 85%, for pollen, mites, animal hair and dander, mold and other allergens effect is better.

However, it should be noted that desensitization treatment needs precise evaluation and control by doctors. We must not try by ourselves. We do not know the dose.

Finally, if your allergen is difficult to avoid completely and desensitization treatment is difficult, you can learn to control yourself and live with it. For example, when you encounter trouble in your life, you can say: "You'd better not make me angry, or I will show you the allergy in a minute!"
