Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment

Traditional Chinese medicine calls it "dampness and poison sores" or "dampness sores". The so-called "poison" refers to some heat toxins that cause the body to reject and react sensitively. These heat toxins may be caused by food, medicine or daily necessities (such as paint, chemical glue, mothballs, etc.). As for "dampness", it means that the body functions are blocked by dampness and become sluggish. Since the human body is 70% water, if the water flow is stagnant, the body will be in a "wet" state. The symptoms are heavy limbs, edema, indigestion, and loose stools.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that eczema is mainly related to dampness, which can accumulate heat and cause symptoms of damp-heat. Over time, dampness can damage the spleen, while heat can damage yin and blood, leading to a mixture of deficiency and excess symptoms. Acute eczema is often a symptom of dampness and heat, while chronic eczema is often a mixed symptom of deficiency and excess.

In the treatment of eczema, the internal treatment should be nourishing blood and dispelling wind, clearing away heat and detoxifying, and assisting with diuresis.
