This is very common

When spring is here

Let's welcome Dr. Amy

Hi guys. My name is Dr. Amy Peng
-
I'm a dermatologist
-
So Amy, as a professional dermatologist
-
You probably have seen many patients
-
with this kind of problems
-
Yah, so with Taiwan's hot and humid climate
-
we get all sorts of skin problems
-
So this is pretty common
-
and I think we need to find out more
-
Jenny I'm so tired
-
What's wrong ? Amy
-
You know this is the busiest time for dermatologist
-
Why ?
-
This unstable weather
-
making our skin unstable too
-
It may itch and we scratch
-
Oh, I feeling a bit itchy
-
Don't scratch
-
You may end up with a skin infection
-
if you keep scratching
-
How about scratching it lightly
-
It's not a good solution
-
the best is to put on some lotion
-
If it doesn't get better
-
you probably got atopic dermatitis
-
Uh, something like this
-
That looks like a mosquito bite
-
Rub some ointment on it
-
Oh it's so embarrassing
-
You know I thought it was something series
-
I even took a photo I sent it to Jiny
-
Beacuse I thought I'm gonna die
-
Well, you shouldn't underestimate a mosquito bite
-
If you keep scratching
-
it could result in cellulitis
-
and don't worry you're not gonna die
-
but it is an open wound so treat it carefully
-
How about this ?
-
That is disgusting
-
Let me help you
-
There you go
-
Oh thank you Amy !
-
No no no let me help you
-
Thank you
-
You're welcome
-
So Amy
-
what is atopic dermatitis
-
Can you elaborate a little bit more
-
Atopic dermatitis is a most common type of eczema
-
For many complex reasons
-
our immune system become disordered and overactive
-
This causes inflammation and damages our skin
-
Our skin becomes dry and prone to itching
-
Atopic dermatitis is also commonly associated with
-
Respiratory allergies
-
like allergic rhinitis ans asthma
-
So what are the triggering factors ?
-
Some common triggers include
-
cold and dry weather
-
heat, humidity, sweat and air pollution
-
Food triggers include
-
soy, egg,milk,gluten or nuts
-
So which age group is the most susceptible to this ?
-
So atopic dermatitis often begins before the age of 5
-
and may persist into adolescence and adulthood
-
The area of skin rash depends on the age group
-
In babes and younger children
-
it commonly affects the scalp
-
face and the front parts of the arms and legs
-
In older children and adults
-
It's mostly the flexural areas
-
For example neck inside of the elbows
-
and back of the knees
-
Seems like adults have moderate symptom
-
How is it treated ?
-
Skin hydration is the most important step
-
Try to moisturize at least twice daily
-
especially after shower
-
Avoid triggers that worsens the skin condition
-
including sweat, dust mites, pollen and stress
-
So, will the ordinary moisturizing lotion work ?
-
So we usually prescribe topical steroid
-
to relieve the redness, swelling and itching
-
If a larger area of skin is involved
-
we also give oral anti-itch medication
-
to avoid the vicious itch and scratch cycle
-
Other treatments include phototherapy and wet dressings
-
Scratching sometimes leads to skin infection
-
In that case
-
we also give oral or topical antibiotics
-
Thank you, Amy
-
Now I know how to do when winter come
-
I'm ready
