身痕也因壓力起
緊張小姐：「最近社會氣氛緊張，精神壓力大，突然頸及背部還長滿紅疹，又腫又痕，該怎麼辦？」
CheckCheckCin：中醫認為，健康之道在於身心平衡，精神狀態對身體帶來影響其實很大。長期處於高壓狀態下，人會份外容易出現情緒問題，情志傷肝，肝氣鬱滯令氣機不暢通，當氣機未可正常疏泄，濕熱容易蘊結體內而誘發突發性皮膚敏感或濕疹，很多時更會伴隨脇肋脹痛、口苦、大便乾結、小便偏黃等偏熱症狀。
濕疹在任何身體部位也有可能出現，有些人的濕疹主要長在頸，衣領揩到皮膚時更見癢痛，嚴重的甚至會有皮膚增厚的症狀，這又稱為「攝領瘡」，遇上緊張、煩躁或晚上會相對痕癢。其實這類因壓力引致的濕疹、皮膚痕癢是身體和情緒的惡性循環，當人愈緊張，情緒愈差時，濕疹的發作也更嚴重；當濕疹爆發，痕癢不適亦會令人心情欠佳、煩躁，濕疹更難痊癒，所以這時候必須先行鎮靜情緒，調理情志，告訴自己情緒愈失控愈生氣也是於事無補，再由內至外針對濕疹症狀。

Stress can cause itchy skin
“The recent social atmosphere has been tense. My mental stress is increased, and developed neck and back rash suddenly are. They are swollen and itchy. What should I do?”
CheckCheckCin: Chinese medicine believes that it is important to have balance of mind and body, and the mental state has a great impact on the body. Under the long-term high pressure, people will be prone to emotional problems. Emotion affects liver. Liver qi stagnation makes the qi circulation not smooth, when the qi cannot be properly vented, damp heat can accumulate in the body and induce sudden skin allergy or eczema. This is usually accompanied by hypochondriac pain, bitter taste in mouth, dry stool, yellowish urine and other heat-related symptoms.
Eczema may occur in any part of the body. Some people have eczema mainly in the neck. When the skin is rubbed by collar, it is more itchy. Serious symptoms such as skin thickening may occur. This is also called ‘collaring sores’, and the itch will worsen at night with stress and irritability. In fact, this type of eczema and skin itch caused by stress is a vicious circle of the body and emotions. When people get nervous and their mood is worse, eczema worsens. When eczema breaks out, itching and discomfort will also put people in a bad mood, then the eczema is harder to heal. Therefore, it is necessary to calm down and regulate emotions first, and tell yourself that the uncontrolled emotions and anger does not help, and then relieve the symptoms of eczema from the inside to outside.
