At this time of year we welcome rain with open arms. The heavy rains remind of days of idleness, umbrellas, masala chai, samosas and cold in a blanket at home. The rains are not only a welcome respite from the summer heat, but also bring new skin problems. Long hours in wet clothing, repeated dipping of the feet in polluted water and constantly high humidity cause physical discomfort and a variety of skin and allergies. Moisture is a very familiar meeting place for many bacteria, fungi and other infections that develop unchecked on the skin. In addition, the high acidity of the first rains causes skin and hair stronger.
Dr. Apratim Goel, Laser Surgeon and Dermatologist, Director of Cutis Skin Studio, lists some of the most common monsoon diseases that we should know about and how to treat them:
Fungal infection of the toes or woven areas of the toes is referred to as athlete's foot. This problem is more common in men, as they usually wear closed shoes. There is itching, flaking and discoloration of the Internet and fingernails may discolor or become brittle. Wear open shoes in the rain and socks and dry shoes inside. Always wash your feet with soap and water after being exposed to puddles or rainwater. Apply Abzorb antifungal powder before putting on your socks and applying antifungal cream in the evening. If the condition does not improve, consult a dermatologist.
Another very common problem in the rain is the fungal infection of other body parts, especially the skin folds, which are referred to as ringworm or ringworm. The skin is very irritating and it forms red and dry spots. The solution is to consult a dermatologist as soon as possible and to avoid the use of steroidal ointment, as these offer immediate relief, but later a severe relapse. This is more common in diabetics.
Another organism that blooms in the rain and is rescued through close contact is a mite that causes a disease called "scabies." This causes severe itching, especially at night, and a rash in the finger spaces and wrinkles of the body. Ask your doctor for treatment. As it is transmitted through contact, you also isolate the person and their property. All members of the family have to be created. More common in children.
In the case of mites, mites as well as lice infestation of the scalp and body occur. It usually occurs in women, where wet hair is fixed for a long time. Lice treatments like Medikar are available.
In addition, acne and dandruff are more common nowadays and need to be treated appropriately when they occur. Regular washing of the hair with a dandruff shampoo containing ketoconazole helps keep the scalp free of dandruff.
Apart from these diseases, there are usually many nonspecific conditions such as wrinkles on the skin, body odor, dull and lifeless complexion or lock of hair, all due to excess moisture.
Sensitive Skin: This is an observation that is common in almost all age groups. Due to the uneven water content of the skin, it is dry, irritated, sensitive and behaves strangely. You can no longer use our make-up and nothing seems to match your skin.
By following a few simple tips and a regular skincare program, you can minimize skin and hair problems and give them a beautiful look.
Monsoon Skin Care:
The monsoon is the moment when your skin behaves strangely and is generally unstable; Suddenly it gets oily or dry and dehydrated. Therefore, it is very important that you maintain your skin for a fresh and beautiful look during this season. Rain is the time when we confuse high humidity with excessive skin moisture, which is not true. The truth is that moisture in the air does not turn into moisture in the skin, which often dehydrates the skin. Here are some tips to make sure you enjoy glowing, radiant skin during the monsoon season:
Cleaning: Rainwater contains a large amount of chemicals and pollutants. Therefore, a good cleaning during the monsoon is very important. To remove make-up use milk or make-up remover (micellar water). The washing of impurities from our skin makes her breathe. For facial skin, soaps contain liquid cleansers, facial cleansers and foams.
Toner: This product should be applied after cleaning. During the monsoon, many microbes are released into the air and into the water. Therefore, a good antibacterial toner helps to prevent infections and rashes. Use a cotton swab and rub the product on the skin. However, very dry skin should be kept away from toners or use very soft toners. It works well for oily skin and tends to acne.
Moisturizer: Moisture in the rain is just as important as in the summer. The monsoon may have a drying effect on dry skin and a hyperhydrating effect on oily skin. During the rainfall, our skin can be completely drained despite the humidity this season. The result is a dull, lifeless skin that does not shine. The daily moistening of the skin is essential for all skin types. People who spend a lot of time in an air-conditioned environment should hydrate more frequently, otherwise the skin itches. Use a water-based moisturizer that is often wet. Otherwise, a water-based moisturizer will do the trick. Remember that even with oily skin, you should use a thin layer of water-based lotion at night. Oily skin may, however, avoid this product during the day.
Sunscreen: Do not go out without sunscreen. Although the light is natural, our skin must be protected from UVA and UVB rays. Apply sunscreen with a SPF of at least 25 SPF before leaving for 20 minutes and repeat the application ideally every three to four hours. In people's minds, we often falsely think that sunscreen should only be used when the sun is in the rendezvous. Do not underestimate UV radiation in cloudy / rainy weather.
Stay dry : Try to keep hair and body wrinkles dry, especially if you get wet in rainwater. Do not knit wet hair, as this can cause lice and fungal infections and may also have a musty odor. Even in the body, many organisms thrive in wet, wet weather. Take a bath with water if you have rain water. If you are outdoors, use paper towels or absorbent towels to remove excess rainwater. It is also a good option to use dust powder in the body folds.
Care: For a skin without blemishes that shines, stick to your skin, eg. In fact, monsoons are a good time to use scrubs and lasers because the attention that comes from them is much less important since in a facial, in cleaning, polishing the skin, scrubs, lasers, etc. In most cases, there is no direct sunlight. If skin rashes or rashes, which are very common during the monsoon season, occur, consult your dermatologist.
Monsoon Hair Care:
There's nothing like having a good bath with a shampoo when you're in the pouring rain. If you wash your hair too often, for example every day, the problems you already have can be exaggerated. Wash your hair two or three times a week to keep it clean and beautiful. At the same time, excessive drying of the hair is prevented and ripples are minimized. Do not forget to condition your hair after every wash. You can use a conditioner without rinsing to facilitate hair drying.
- If you wet your hair in the rain, you should wash it with a mild shampoo as soon as possible. Do not leave rainwater in your hair for long periods of time as they contain many chemicals that can damage them.
- Dry scalp massage to improve blood circulation. However, a hot oil massage once a week is a good idea. In this case, do not leave the oil in the hair for a long time. Instead, wash it in a few hours.
- Wash your hair every other day. If you have short hair, you can wash it every day. Switching to an ultrafine shampoo / baby is a good idea. Apply a conditioner to the hair shaft to strengthen your hair.
- Do not use a spray or hair gel during the monsoon, as they will adhere to the scalp and cause dandruff. Do not use the hairdryer. However, if the hair is wet at night, apply plenty of rinse to the hair and then dry in cold air.
- Excess moisture is the main culprit this season. This also affects your hair when it is indoors, especially on days of high humidity. Depending on your hair type, you can leave your hair curly or flat. Fine, wavy or curly hair absorbs moisture from the air. The best solution is to use a moisture resistant gel before combing.
- Depending on your hair type, choose hair care products. Curly, dry and rough hair is usually treated with hair creams or similar products to soften it.
- Dandruff is a common monsoon problem due to high humidity and wet hair. So make sure to use an anti-dandruff shampoo containing ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione once a week. However, use your regular shampoo on the other days
- The chlorine content of the water during the monsoon is also very high. This can discolour and damage your hair. If possible, wear hooded or raincoats with hoods to prevent rainwater coming in contact with the hair.
- The rain is also the privileged moment for the growth of lice in the hair. If itching on the scalp, apply the approved lotion to the scalp with a cotton ball, leave for 2 hours and rinse. Repeat for 3-4 weeks. This problem is more common in children who go to school.
- Must be in a purse during the monsoon

- Waterproof sunscreen with SPF> 20.
