I believe everyone has eaten yam. It is a very healthy food, but there is a disadvantage. If your hands come into contact with the yam when peeling it, you will be prone to allergies and it will be accompanied by itching. Symptoms, so what should you do if you encounter this situation?
1. First of all, be sure not to scratch. If your hands are itchy after scraping the yam, no matter how serious the allergy is, don’t scratch your hands covered with colloid anywhere on your body. Otherwise, the colloid will get on your hands. Wherever the skin is, it will itch. As the allergen spreads, allergy symptoms will also expand. If it is itchy elsewhere, it is best to use a scratcher or other object to scratch it. Then, depending on the specific situation, you can adopt the various anti-itch tips below.
2. Apply white wine, first wash the allergic area with soap, then apply white wine on the itchy hand skin, wait for it to evaporate, and then wash it with soap to relieve the itching.
3. Soak in hot water. If your hands are itchy after scraping the skin of yam, you can prepare a basin of hot water and soak your hands in the hot water for a few minutes to relieve the itching.
4. Rub your hands in the rice. If your hands feel itchy after touching the yam, wash your hands with water first, then put your hands in the rice and rub the allergic area repeatedly to relieve the itching. Applying vinegar and scraping yam skin may cause itchiness on your hands because peeling yam leaves a lot of mucus. The mucus contains a large amount of plant alkaloids, which will irritate and itch the skin if it sticks to your hands. Therefore, it is undoubtedly effective to use the principle of acid-base neutralization to relieve itching.
The above are the relevant operations, I hope it can be helpful to everyone.
