Can fish bladder improve skin problems?

    Fish bladder, commonly known as fish maw, may help improve mild skin dryness and lack of elasticity caused by nutritional imbalances. However, it is unlikely to be effective for severe skin conditions or skin problems triggered by allergies. A detailed analysis is as follows:

    If the skin is only occasionally dry and rough, and there is insufficient intake of nutrients such as collagen in the daily diet, moderate consumption of fish maw may help supplement collagen and various nutrients, assisting in maintaining skin hydration and elasticity. In such cases, it may be somewhat beneficial for improving skin issues.

    If there are severe skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, or obvious symptoms like redness and itching caused by allergies, simply consuming fish maw will not address the underlying problem. These conditions require targeted treatment, and fish maw cannot effectively improve skin problems.

    When consuming fish maw, attention should be paid to the cooking method, avoiding overly greasy preparations. If skin problems do not improve or worsen after consumption, one should promptly monitor skin condition and consult a professional if necessary.
