Recently, a video on the Internet attracted the attention of many netizens. After a little girl raised a cat for a week, her hair began to fall off her head and showed a lot of bald spots. The 363 Hospital in Chengdu has also encountered the same patient recently, and her condition is even worse.
Zhou Kaihua, chief physician of the Dermatology Department of Chengdu 363 Hospital, introduced: "When the little girl came to the hospital for a visit, there were many pus-like honey nests on her scalp, many of the small pus-like pus-like honey nests, which we call pus-like honey nests. The pus-like honey nests are sticky with some of her hair, and the whole scalp looks like a piece of scalp. The little girl looks very painful."
Doctor Zhou is talking about a nine-year-old girl he met in the hospital a month ago. At that time, the girl was full of pus-like and was very painful. Seeing this situation, Dr. Zhou immediately understood the cause and finally found that the culprit was the cat she raised at home.
"I asked the little girl if she had cats and dogs at home. Then his parents told me that the little girl had dogs and cats at home, but the little girl was very close to the cats at home, and she often held them in her arms, and even slept with the kitten when she was sleeping." Dr. Zhou said.
Hearing this, Dr. Zhou understood the reason. The little girl was infected by fungi on the cat because of her long-term close contact with the kitten, which caused pustules to appear on her head.
Dr. Zhou said: "Because the child's overall skin is still relatively weak, this will cause fungi to absorb more easily on the surface of her skin, so she will be prone to illness."
At the same time, Dr. Zhou told reporters that the disease is called tinea pus, which is an infectious pathological reaction on the scalp caused by animal dermatophytes, and has a tendency to increase in recent years. The doctor said that it is best to detect and treat this disease early, and the earlier the treatment, the better the effect. Early treatment is simple and convenient, and there will be no sequelae. However, if you come back to treatment when the disease is serious, it will cause permanent hair loss.
It is understood that early infections have some symptoms, first, itchy scalp, and second, it is broken hair. Inexplicably, part of the hair begins to break from the root. Finally, if it develops to the stage of pus and blood, it will be more serious, the treatment cycle is longer, and it is difficult to treat with drugs. After healing, the hair on the scalp will lose, resulting in permanent hair loss.
At the same time, Dr. Zhou introduced that the time from the initial infection to the development of permanent hair loss is not frequent, and it only takes one month, so families with cats and dogs must pay attention to it and take good precautions.
Dr. Zhou introduced: "We also need to take a bath for our pets. In this case, add fungicidal drugs when taking a bath, which can be placed in the bath water to prevent it and play a sterilization effect. In this way, the fungus will be killed. When you contact it, it will not be easily transmitted to your head."
In addition to preventing animals, Dr. Zhou also reminded that people should also clean and prevent after contacting animals. They can use some medicinal lotions to wash their hair, so that the two-pronged prevention effect will be better.
