Today, September 14, is World Eczema Day. How common is eczema in Hong Kong? According to a recent press conference held by the Hong Kong Allergy Association and the Eczema Concern Group, there are nearly 10,000 children with eczema under the age of 5 in Hong Kong, and the confirmed severity is 10%. The patient group also hopes that the government can increase resources to support children with severe eczema, and pointed out that caregivers of children with eczema are under pressure. In fact, this is indeed the voice of many parents who take care of children with eczema, every time they see their children's skin itching very much, scratching and relieving the itching, or the lips are swollen after eating fish, they all have the courage to get up.

Under normal circumstances, a small number of children under the age of 5 with food allergies will have a chance to gradually improve their condition, but most of them may not improve, but may also have allergic reactions to other environmental allergens, such as cat hair, dog hair, mould and dust mites, etc., so the persistence of eczema in this class will increase, and there may be allergic reactions such as itchy skin, redness and swelling, or allergic eye allergies or nasal allergies. Parents will be able to easily determine whether their children have allergic reactions, for example, their children's scar hunting is especially obvious at night. The condition will improve when traveling abroad, and the itching and discomfort will be especially noticeable after the change of environment.

To scientifically find out the allergic murderer? With just 2 ml of blood drawn for the latest generation immunoglobulin E (IgE) (Faber / Ailergy) allergy test, more than 295 allergen molecules can be detected, and serum with a total IgE of up to 45,000 IU/ml can be accurately tested to avoid false positives and provide accurate and reliable results. If an allergic reaction to an allergen is confirmed, the first step of anti-allergy can be carried out to change the status quo of the environment, for example, if you are allergic to dust mites, use anti-dust mite bedding; Immunotherapy can also be used to train the immune system, spend 5 minutes a day and put the sublingual desensitization solution on the bottom of the belly, and after 8 to 9 months, there will be a significant improvement effect.
