What ointment does skin eczema use


Healing hearts, one patient at a time.
For localized eczema, i.e., skin lesions less than 10%-30% of body surface area, eczema can be treated with topical medication only. In the acute phase, when there are no blisters, exudates, and erosions, calamine lotion, zinc oxide paste, or glucocorticoid cream should be used instead of ointment or plaster. A large exudate rash should be applied wet with 3% boric acid solution. Subacute skin lesions, blistering exudation has been very small, can choose zinc oxide paste or zinc oxide oil. Chronic skin lesions can choose glucocorticoid ointment, plaster, emulsion or tincture, etc., at the same time can use some moisturizing agents and keratin pine antidote, such as 20%-40% urea vitamin E ointment or 10% salicylic acid ointment. External glucocorticoids can be divided into weak, moderate, strong and strong, should be based on different parts of the disease to choose different drugs, such as the face, scrotum and other parts of the skin is relatively thin and tender, should choose weak hormones, such as desonide ointment. For the palmar skin is relatively thick parts, can choose strong and strong ointment, such as halometasone, flumetasone ointment and so on.
