紓緩主婦手有妙法
你有沒有認真看過媽媽的一雙手？是白嫩細滑的？還是粗糙乾裂的？如果你發現它乾燥、龜裂、脫皮甚至紅腫，又不時見到媽媽在抓癢，該是患上主婦手了！主婦手是其中一種接觸性皮炎，但凡雙手經常接觸水及清潔劑及人都容易患上，從中醫角度來看，這是「濕毒浸淫皸裂」，由於過度接觸水濕，濕邪入侵肌膚，造成痕癢、紅腫、老化等類似濕疹、過敏性皮膚炎的症狀，常處理家頭細務的媽媽就首當其衝，加上最近受疫情影響，在家煮食次數增加，清潔及消毒功夫亦大增，實在要好好關心一下媽媽雙手！
想預防及紓緩主婦手的症狀，就要讓雙手多休息，減少沾水次數，避免接觸化學清潔劑，亦要避免使用酒精搓手液刺激皮膚。洗手時選用無刺激性、含油的中性保濕洗手液，洗手後立即塗不含刺激物的潤手霜。如果主婦手發作，就可配合體質適量服用滋陰潤燥或清熱袪濕的食物，例如有皮膚泛紅、痕癢滲水等症狀，可以煲煮以下清熱止癢茶療給她，紓緩痕癢問題。
