Why does a pregnant woman's face itch due to allergies?

Pregnancy is very different from normal life, and there are also many problems. Special attention should be paid to living habits, eating habits and other precautions. Facial skin allergy is also a common symptom, which is usually caused by many reasons, such as inappropriate skin care products, too thin facial stratum corneum, diet or allergies to other items, etc. Mild cases can be cured by improving some lifestyle habits, but more serious cases need to go to the hospital in time and not take medicine indiscriminately.

What should I do if a pregnant woman has skin allergies and itching? The skin on my face is particularly prone to allergies, and sometimes it often becomes red and swollen. What should I do? Is there any folk remedy that can alleviate this situation?

Steps/Methods:

01 Hello, pregnant mother. If you are pregnant, do not take medicine indiscriminately. If the patient has a history of allergies, you must find out what the allergens are. You should not touch these allergens in the future.

02 If the itching is really severe, you can use some natural anti-itching items, such as herbal gel. In addition, you can also use some prickly heat powder or talcum powder used by children to keep the skin dry.

03 Pregnant women’s skin allergies may also be related to their diet. Food allergies can easily cause skin rashes and the like. If you are certain that you have a food allergy, you must not take medication at will. If you know which foods will cause allergies, you should avoid eating them during pregnancy.

Note:

Pregnant women should never eat food that they have never eaten before or moldy food during pregnancy. Itchy skin during pregnancy is also a type of eczema. Boiling mung beans into soup is a good solution. Patients can boil mung beans into soup without adding any sugar and just drink the soup.

Pregnancy lasts ten months, which is neither long nor short. During the ten months of pregnancy, many expectant mothers will experience other conditions in addition to pregnancy reactions. Some expectant mothers suffer from allergies, redness and itching on their faces due to various factors, which is very uncomfortable. However, expectant mothers will not take medicine casually out of instinct, for fear of affecting the fetus in their belly. So, what should pregnant women do if their faces become red and itchy due to allergies?

Due to hormonal changes after pregnancy, short-term allergic skin inflammation often occurs. Skin allergies in pregnant women will not affect the fetus, but they are more difficult to treat. Removing the inducing factors is the best way to treat allergies. The method is simple but not easy to do. It requires patience and carefulness, and even cooperation with a doctor to find the allergens. Pregnant women with allergies should try not to use allergy medicines. Some drugs can enter the placenta through the pregnant woman's skin and hinder the growth and development of the fetus, or directly damage certain organs, causing fetal malformations or diseases.

In addition, you should also pay attention to your diet. If you have had allergic reactions to certain foods in the past, you should avoid eating them during pregnancy. If you experience itching all over your body or symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, etc. after eating certain foods, you should stop eating these foods immediately; do not eat foods that are prone to allergies, such as seafood. Therefore, when pregnant women experience allergic reactions, they should go to the hospital for treatment in time.

Finally, I would like to remind all expectant mothers to avoid scratching to relieve itching. Because of constant scratching, the skin often turns red and scratches appear, causing the epidermis to fall off and blood scabs to form. Over time, this will lead to thickening of the skin and darkening of pigmentation, which will in turn aggravate the itching and may even cause purulent infection, forming a vicious cycle.
