香港,中国 - Media OutReach - 20181023 - 指(趾)甲出现异样,很多人会第一时间联想到灰甲。但如发生甲板剥离,甲面像被冰凿过出现凹陷,或在指(趾)甲中间出现油滴状红点等,则有可能是患上银屑病的信号。皮肤科专科医生陈涌表示:"指甲型银屑病相对较难诊断,首先需排除其他疾病的可能性,如灰甲等,才能确诊。如患者有类似表现,应尽快找医生作专业诊断。"

指甲异常或是银屑病信号 皮肤受损有机会增加银屑病面积

 

自身免疫系统失调或令关节变形

银屑病又名"牛皮癣",但病理与一般的"癣"不同。银屑病由自身免疫系统失调引起,属非传染性疾病。患者的免疫系统发出错误信号,使皮肤不断增生和加厚,还会有脱皮现象,常见皮屑像雪花般飘落。

 

银屑病病情严重时可破坏关节,影响活动能力。一旦关节变形,必须进行手术才能复原。平均每十位严重银屑病患者中,便有三位患上银屑病关节炎。皮肤的受影响情况与关节受破坏的风险未必成正比,皮肤即使出现轻微症状的患者也有可能患上严重关节炎。

 

生物制剂针对根源进行治疗

银屑病的治疗方案有很多,对于病情较轻的患者,医生会处方外用药物涂抹患处,减轻皮肤发红和变厚。因类固醇会使皮肤变薄,患者需小心切勿过量使用。另外,治疗方案还包括口服药和紫外线照射等。而新一代的生物制剂能直击疾病的根源 -- 靶向免疫系统的某一个环节而发挥治疗作用,相比传统治疗不仅效果好而且副作用也少,不会影响身体整个免疫系统的运作。

 

陈医生分享道,曾有位年轻患者,大部份皮肤出现斑块。外观问题使得患者受排斥,更难以寻找工作,从而导致情绪低落。患者接受生物制剂治疗约一个月后达到PASI 100,即清除了所有皮肤上的斑块。随着病情缓解,患者重拾自信,恢复正常社交,甚至开始学习舞蹈。现在患者每月接受一次生物制剂治疗,病情受到控制。

 

避免受伤以免增加受影响的皮肤范围

陈医生提醒患者,患处皮肤不可过分抓挠,不应自行撕去仍未脱落的鳞屑,因伤口有机会诱发新的斑块,扩大受影响皮肤的面积。另外,过硬或过紧的衣物有机会磨走皮屑,使皮肤受损。患者穿着宽松的衣服,有助舒缓病情。

 

照紫外线灯有助于患者减慢皮肤增厚的速度,就连阳光中的紫外线也可缓解病情。陈医生指出:"为免晒伤,建议患者可选择于早上十一时前或下午三时后晒太阳,避免正午阳光猛烈的时间,另外还要注意晒太阳的时间不可太长。"
