Powder or allergy: how to tell - detailed information

The question of how to correctly and clearly distinguish allergy from sweating occurs not only in young mothers, but also in adults. Allergic rashes may appear due to various reasons, after which the skin shows a rash. This problem has existed for a very long time, and now we will consider each of the above diseases and give a separate detailed description, as well as describe the comparisons between diseases.

What is sudamen and its variants

Miliaria is a rash, which appears in the form of bubbles or nodules on the body with a red tint.

Similar phenomena appear due to the process of occlusion of the sweat glands. In addition, rashes on the skin can appear after a prolonged stay of the body in elevated temperature.

By the nature of the rash are divided into such types of sweats:

In most cases, regardless of the age category of the patient, those areas of the skin that are poorly ventilated in the groin, behind the ears, and between the fingers are exposed to the rashes. In addition, rashes often appear in the area of ​​the elbow and knee flexion, as well as in places where the synthetic material adheres tightly.

Note! Doctors do not recommend to keep a child in diapers for a long time, also in clothes that are made of "non-breathable" material.

The typical causes of the disease

In normal state, sweating takes a maximum part in the whole process of thermoregulation. The activity of the glands maximally works with a gradual increase in air temperature, resulting in the process of intensive sweat secretion. This moment protects the body from severe overheating and cools the skin. The same mechanism begins to work with an increase in the temperature of the whole body, which often happens with different diseases.

Symptoms of sweating

As mentioned above, there are three types of this disease, each of which has its own characteristics.

The crystalline version of appears as white bubbles with a diameter of about 1-2 mm. Small bubbles can merge with each other and form large bubbles. They burst such formations for two days.

The red hot looks like nodules of red color, with a diameter of about 1-3 mm.

The liquid in the vesicles is turbid, and around it you can notice a hyperemic corolla. Such blisters, as a rule, do not merge with each other, and even the smallest ones are surrounded by an inflammatory formation.

Usually, the skin is affected, which undergoes the friction process:

This kind of sweating can manifest in an adult in very hot weather conditions, as well as as a result of physical actions over a long period of time.

The papular appearance of the is characterized by a flesh-colored blister with a diameter of not more than 3 mm.

Eruptions can be located in the area of ​​the arms, legs, or the entire body. Usually, this disease easily develops on the territory of tropical countries, which have a characteristic moist, as well as hot climate. People who are not adapted to hot weather conditions are considered to be the most susceptible to this type of disease.

The course of the disease is not complicated, but it can easily take and aggravate in the variant of joining another infection. In such situations, the liquid inside the blisters becomes in the form of abscesses, and the process develops into pyoderma.

Prophylactic measures: the differences between allergies and sweating

If we talk about what preventive measures should be taken with a diagnosis in the form of an allergy, it is necessary to understand that everything depends on the type of disease. If such a reaction of the body is caused by a certain food product - it must be simply excluded from its diet. If the doctor has established an accurate diagnosis of the child, it is important to conduct basic treatment at all times - do not violate hygiene standards, regularly use special cleansing oils. With the help of compresses, which include water and soda, you can safely get rid of itching.

Diagnostic measures

Specialists make another scraping, due to which pathogenic fungi are detected. All such actions are necessary in order to confidently exclude other pathologies.

Diagnosis of allergies should be carried out only after the patient has completed the full range of necessary examinations. It all begins with a conversation with the doctor, which clarifies the features of the disease, conditions, as well as other important points. Examination can be carried out with the help of an injection, as well as scratches. This is necessary to make the determination of the correct and accurate allergens. The difference between the described methods is very small. Usually, the data is taken in the part of the body of the forearm, the area of ​​the forearm. After alcohol processing, apply a few drops of the allergen.

There are also elimination tests that are used for permanent contact with an allergen. An excellent example is the use of diet, as a result of which the product - the allergen is excluded from the diet. If the rash passes through 14 days, it indicates that it was one of the food components that caused the allergy.

Given all the above information, we can say that these are two completely different diseases, which can be distinguished by taking into account the features, as well as the localization of all the rashes. But, in any case, it can be done only by an experienced specialist who has experience in the field of treating such diseases, as a result of which he knows in practice all the subtleties and nuances. When self-medication you can not only not improve the result, but also aggravate the development of this or that disease.
