NEURODERMATITIS IN SUMMER

Neurodermitis Haut Sommer Sonnenlicht
Eczema Skin Summer Sunlight

For those with neurodermatitis, the skin often reacts more intensely to specific external factors. However, these reactions can vary greatly from person to person, making it impossible to generalize about what triggers a flare-up and how the skin will respond.

During summer, the climate and environmental influences on the skin change significantly. Below, we’ll discuss how your skin may react to these changes and share tips on how to address potential "new" triggers effectively.


 



How Is Neurodermatitis Affected During Summer?

For many neurodermatitis sufferers, the warmer months bring relief. The absence of dry heating air and heavy winter clothing allows the skin to breathe more freely and benefit from the regenerating effects of sunlight. However, this isn't the case for everyone. The diseased skin’s heightened sensitivity means that UV rays can sometimes act as a trigger, leading to irritation or flare-ups. Understanding how your skin responds to summer conditions is key to enjoying the season while minimizing potential issues.





What Effects Does the Sun Have on Neurodermatitis?

The way neurodermatitis-affected skin reacts to sunlight can vary greatly. Sunlight is often believed to have a positive effect on the skin. In some therapeutic approaches, UV radiation is even used deliberately to treat the condition. However, this involves a carefully controlled light spectrum administered under medical supervision.

It’s important to note that while UV light is essential for our well-being—helping our bodies produce vitamin D—excessive exposure can be harmful and increase the risk of skin cancer. This is why proper sun protection is crucial. And remember, this applies not only to those with skin conditions but to everyone!


Which Triggers Are More Common In Summer?

During summer, some individuals may experience increased itching on their already sensitive skin. This is due to specific factors that can exacerbate irritation and intensify inflammatory reactions. Common triggers include:
  • Sweat
  • Excessive sun exposure
  • Chlorinated water
  • Pollen

How Should You Care for Neurodermatitis-prone Skin in Summer?

With changing environmental conditions, your skincare routine should also adapt. Observing how your skin reacts to summer factors is key. You can take advantage of some benefits that the season offers:
  • Take short, cool showers.
  • Consider vacationing in climates with low pollen levels or a southern climate.
  • Adjust your creams: the warmer it gets, the less fat your moisturizer should contain.
  • Benefit from salt water.
 
Rich, fatty creams can cause excessive sweating in summer, potentially leading to itching or even skin inflammation. If a seaside vacation isn’t an option, we offer an alternative solution for your home.
