However, if you take time to treat it, your beriberi can be completely cured. Please combine your own situation, symptomatic treatment:
1. There are three kinds of beriberi: erosive beriberi, vesicular beriberi and keratotic beriberi.
1. erosive type: it occurs between the third and fourth toes and between the fourth and fifth toes. When the toes first get wet, they are soaked in white or small blisters. When drying and peeling, the desquamation place is wet, red and itchy, which is easy to cause secondary infection.
2. blister type: it occurs at the edge of the foot. At first, there are small blisters with full wall thickness, and some can be merged into large blisters. The blister liquid is transparent and there is no blush around it. Self-conscious itching often leads to erysipelas and lymphangitis due to secondary infection after scratching.
3. Keratinization type: occurs in the heel. The main manifestations are thick and dry skin, keratinization, desquamation, itching and easy chapping. This type has no blister and suppuration, and the course of disease is slow, and it will not heal for many years.
Second, the treatment method:
(1) erosive type: first soak in 1: 5000 potassium permanganate solution or 0. 1% Ravennur solution, then apply gentian violet or beriberi powder twice a day, air dry, and then apply beriberi ling or tinea ointment twice a day.
(2) Blister type: After soaking feet in hot water, apply clotrimazole tinea lotion or compound salicylic acid tincture once a day. After the skin is dry, apply beriberi or Xuan Di ointment.
(3) Keratinization: Compound benzoic acid ointment can be used externally or alternately with compound salicylate, once in the morning and once in the evening. It is best to wrap the medicine with plastic film after application, so that the medicine can be immersed in the thick skin, which is convenient for peeling off the thick skin.
(4) In recent years, Foot Light Powder has been used to treat all kinds of beriberi in bed, and the effect is remarkable. Soak your feet once every night, and it works three times. See the instructions for specific usage.
Third, the treatment of beriberi misunderstanding:
Myth 1: Refusing medication: The itching of the skin is aggravated after these stimuli, forming a vicious circle of scratching and scratching, and it can be stopped if it is itchy. In this way, the bacteria and dirt in the hands and nails naturally fall into the focus area, which is easy to cause secondary bacterial infection. Therefore, once beriberi is found, it is necessary to take medicine as soon as possible.
Myth 2: Use drugs at will: Many people think that just look at the advertisements and go to the pharmacy to buy some medicine. In fact, it is very likely to be misdiagnosed and delayed treatment. Patients should first go to the dermatology department of a regular hospital for diagnosis, and then carry out scientific treatment according to the treatment methods recommended by doctors.
