Why Does My Daughter Get Blisters On Her Hands And Feet?

September 30, 2009

in Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. My 11-month-old daughter has been getting blisters on her hands and feet since she was 4 months old. She gets these whenever she crawls or walks. The dermatologist says that this is due to friction of the tender skin. He says that her upper layer of the skin is very sensitive, which leads to these boils. Is there a permanent cure for this? My wife also gets blisters.

A. Your child as well as wife have epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EB Simplex). It is a genetic, inherited disorder. Diagnosis is made by histopathology, salt-split technique of immunofluorescence, electron microscopy and immunoblotting technique. Blistering in the hands and feet will improve with age but it never goes completely. Fresh blisters should be drained after puncturing them with a sterile disposable needle as they extend if left alone. The blister roof should be left in situ. Ideally, the footwear used should be made of very soft leather, with a minimum number of internal seams. Towelling-type sports socks may be worn. It is sometimes useful for the patient to wear two pairs of socks as this helps to reduce friction. It is important not to have rough internal seams in clothing and that it fits loosely, especially at the neck, wrists and ankles. Avoidance of a high environmental temperature is a helpful measure. Short courses of oral prednisolone to reduce blistering temporarily may be considered in any type of EB under the supervision of a doctor.

How To Manage Allergy Due To Xylometazone Ointment?

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. My glans penis is hypersensitive. I therefore have the problem of premature ejaculation. I applied xylometazoline ointment on my penis for three months. I also used condoms to avoid adverse affects in my partner. I used to have sex once a week and it was very enjoyable. It was during this period that my partner had an orgasm for the first time. I also washed my penis immediately after sex. However, recently I have developed some irritation on the top of my penis. Reddish spots have developed, which are very irritating. I have applied different antifungal creams. They reduce the irritation but the problem recurs once I stop using them. The problem also recurs when I have sex. As a result I have not had sex for the past one month. Please advise.

A. The glans penis is the sensitive part of the male genitalia. If sex is initiated without stimulating the partner with pre-sex activity, it may lead to premature ejaculation. The female receptive organ may not be lubricated, hence an hurriedly initiated act leads to premature ejaculation. Regarding your problem of irritation alter topical application of xylometazoline and condom use, it could be due to allergy to xylometazoline or, though less likely, even to the condom. Oily lubricants are generally avoided with latex condoms; only liquid-based lubricants can be used. In your case, stop applying xylometazoline first. Apply Flutivate cream once daily for 7 days and then stop. This will hopefully take care of your problem. If it does not, consult a dermatologist. Sometimes, condoms do cause allergy. If the problem recurs later on after stopping topical xylometazoline, then it is probably due to the condom. In that case, condoms which do not have any fragrance, may be more suitable.

What Is The Cause For My Wife’s Skin Allergy?

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. My wife has an allergy of the skin. She gets rashes on the body. I had heard that this occurs when someone eats ants by mistake. We consulted a skin specialist who said this could be due to some allergy or due to consuming some food/ drink containing citric acid. Is this correct?

A. There are a many myths associated with ‘hives’, which is what your wife probably has. Please remember that most of these attacks have no cause (idiopathic), and the majority of them resolve on their own. However, she will need non-sedative antihistamines to relieve her symptoms. Kindly get your family physician to prescribe a sale one. Abstain from over the-counter medication. Diet drugs and stress levels should also be monitored.

My Wife Has Photosensitive Skin Allergy.

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. My wife has photosensitive skin allergy and develops rashes on her skin if she gets exposed to direct sunlight. She also has allergic cold, nasal block and sneezing when she cooks or is in a crowded atmosphere or she is exposed to early morning chill. She is allergic to sulpha drugs. Are these interconnected? What treatment should she take and what is the cure? Please help.

A. Photosensitivity reactions can be of several types, including solar urticaria (nettle rash or hives), and polymorphic light reaction. Some are associated with drugs, including sulphonamides. A dermatologist with expertise in this field may be able to identify which wavelength of UV light is responsible, and advise which barrier creams are likely to be effective. Heat and cold can also elicit urticaria in some patients. Avoidance of these and antihistamine treatment are the main options for management. Nasal symptoms too may benefit from antihistamine treatment or nasal steroid sprays or drops used regularly. Symptoms starting after the age of 30 years are not as likely to be due to allergy as in younger patients

I Am Allergic To Fruits And Dry Fruits.

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. I have been suffering from allergy since the age of 6 years. Initially, I was affected by hair fixer, now I have allergy to banana, grapes, dry fruits, etc. I feel irritation in the throat and ears whenever I take any of the abovementioned eatables. A hair fixer causes severe irritation and redness in my eyes. I use cetrizine SOS which gives me relief.

A. Banana allergy is sometimes a cross-reaction to latex (rubber) allergy. If the hair spray contains latex or a cross-reacting protein, this may explain your symptoms. If you are allergic to latex, it is important that you let medical staff know when you need to have an operation. This type of allergy would normally cause immediate hives or nettle rash at the site of contact with rubber, such as balloons, etc.

How Can I Manage Cold Allergy Of The Skin?

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. I am 50 years old. Since the past 9 years I have been experiencing severe allergy whenever my skin is exposed to anything cold. It may be rain, cold wind, cold water, ice, or even the coolness in an air-conditioned room. My skin gets severely itchy, becomes reddish and swollen. After some time when I am away from the cold, this subsides without any medicine. This is causing problems when I ride a bike in the morning. Even the parts protected by clothes start to itch. I have to dress like an astronaut to avoid this. Is there any cure for cold allergy?

A. It sounds as if you have cold urticaria, or nettle rash. This is a recognized example of a physical urticaria, which may be prevented by pre-treatment with an antihistamine, such as loratadine, cetirizine, acrivastine or fexofenadine. If it is widespread, such as after swimming in cold water, it can even lead to loss of consciousness. It sometimes runs in families, and sometimes gets better spontaneously. The diagnostic test is to apply an ice cube to the skin of the forearm for 5 minutes, and then see if a wheal develops over the next few minutes.

How Are Skin Allergies Managed?

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. I have skin allergy on contact with petroleum products such as kerosene, diesel, lubricating oils, etc. On coming in contact with these oils I get mild redness of the skin. I work in a petroleum refinery. However, I come In contact with oils only occasionally, maybe once in 6 months or so. I am not allergic to any medicines. Kindly advise what precautions should be taken and medicines for short-term occasional exposure to these oils. Also, please suggest a long-term solution for this problem.

A. It is not rare to get allergic reaction to oil or its constituents. As you do not get blisters or oozing lesions on your hands, I can presume that your dermatitis (eczema) is allergic and not irritant. It is to be remembered that oils most commonly produce folliculitis and acne. They may cause irritant contact dermatitis (ICD) but rarely allergic dermatitis. The factors contributing to irritation include the chemical properties of the substance; the amount and concentration of the chemical coming in contact with the skin, and the length and frequency of the exposure; and the temperature, humidity, moisture barometric pressure, friction and contamination. The remedy for your problem would lie in wearing hypoallergenic gloves for the time period that you come in contact with the oils. Occupational irritant contact dermatitis can be avoided by the following measures: personal hygiene (hand-washing); substitution with a less harmful substance; education about the harmful properties of the contact substance; wearing protective clothing (aprons, gloves with the manufacturer’s specifications, e.g. kind of material. duration of exposure! glove contact time with the chemical); and convenient washing facilities. Occupational contact dermatitis may be treated with compresses, creams, ointments and skin c1eansers .

Does Sun Exposure Cause Skin Rashes?

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. Sometimes I have to go out in the sun during my work. I am suffering from skin rash behind my neck. I found whitish spots behind the neck. I feel itchy. I always keep myself clean. What should I do?

A. First of all protect that area from strong sunlight by wearing something which will prevent sun exposure, by the A, B, C method: A-AWA Y. Stay away from the sun in the middle of the day (between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.). B-BLOCK. Use SPF 15 or higher sunscreen. C-COVER UP. Wear a shirt and a hat. You can apply a mid-potency topical corticosteroid cream (e.g. Betnovate cream) twice a day for about a week. A systemic antihistamine (e.g. Allegra-180 one tablet I day) can also be used to prevent itching. Contact a dermatologist in your area for your white spots so that the possibility of vitiligo (leucoderma) is excluded .

Does Yoga Help In Curing Allergies?

September 30, 2009 Anti Aging And Skin Care

Q. I have been suffering from an allergy called eczema for the past one-and a-half months which is caused when I consume eggs, tomatoes, tamarind and chicken. I have been taking Cetzine every night. The doctors told me to avoid these items. Do I need to avoid these for the rest of my life or will yoga, especially pranayama, help me get over this allergy?

A. Allergies can be affected by the overall immunological resistance of the body and by general health including physical condition and stress-induced psychological reactivity to unfavourable allergens. Yoga exercises that improve the integrated interactions of the mind and body can lead to a greater tolerance for specific allergens such as foods. Once an overall improved control of the body- mind axis has been achieved, a very small amount of one allergen can be taken as a test dose, and if this is tolerated progressively larger doses can be tried on successive days. However, one must be prepared to treat any allergic response with appropriate medications since allergy can be surprisingly variable, and a cautious approach is always needed. It is interesting that many asthmatics, for instance, grow out of their disease and become more tolerant to allergens, although other subjects may remain susceptible to allergic reactions. Perhaps the use of yoga could prove more helpful for these latter people.
