Neurodermatitis - Alergoderms

 

Neurodermatitis is a skin disease that is manifested by severely dry skin and itch. Sometimes it occurs early in life. There are various causes of neurodermatitis. An important role takes heredity, allergies, non-specific stimuli (using soap, disinfectants, cleaning and laundry, cosmetics), infection (influenza, inflammation), mental workload (work or family), and body tension.

In neurodermatitis, skin is usually dried and accompanied by intense itching. During the winter itch can be greatly enhanced, since the indoor air dries because of heating. Patients with neurodermatitis are more prone to contact allergies such as: substances from ointments, creams, and also are sensitive to nickel. A very common problem is the quality of clothes.

In neurodermatitis it is of great importance to clean the skin thoroughly, where care must be taken that by cleaning, the skin loses a lot of fat. Therefore, warm baths are very harmful to patients with neurodermatitis.

For skin suffering from neurodermatitis it is very good to add zeolite powder in the warm water for bathing, which binds heavy calcium ions and releases sodium and potassium ions. It not only softens the water, but allows its better penetration into the surface layers of the skin. Thus, the skin becomes evenly moist.

A clinical study on the effects of zeolite in alergodermatitis was conducted. A significant positive dynamics of the main symptoms was achieved, right until their disappearance, as well as improvement of the overall situation, improving mood, motor activity and appetite in patients with chronic forms of alergodermatits. Within 5-7 days of the start of treatment, the intensity of itch in all the patients decreased.
