Question

Are eczema patients suitable for eating seafood? The child’s condition has been ongoing for some time, and the parents are unwilling to give medication treatment, please request medical advice.

Answer

Whether eczema patients are suitable for eating seafood depends on the results of allergen testing. If the test is positive, it is not advisable to consume seafood; if negative, it can be consumed in moderation, but one should pay attention not to intake it in large quantities at once and observe the rash and itching after consumption. If symptoms worsen, it is recommended to avoid eating it. In addition to seafood, avoid beef and mutton, spicy and irritating foods, including raw scallions, raw garlic, strong tea, coffee, and alcohol. Also, avoid animal organs, animal heads and feet, and other irritants, as well as nuts such as walnuts, hazelnuts, and pine nuts.
