Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Wang Xiaoyan
Whether pompholyx can heal spontaneously mainly depends on the severity of the condition and the patient's immune system. Mild cases of pompholyx, characterized only by slight pain, itching, and a burning sensation, may resolve on their own if the patient has a strong immune system. However, severe cases of pompholyx, accompanied by symptoms such as headache, fever, formation of large blisters, and suppuration, generally will not resolve spontaneously, especially when the patient's immunity is weak, and thus require medication and treatment. Pompholyx tends to recur frequently; therefore, even if it heals spontaneously, relapses are possible. It is recommended that patients seek timely medical attention and follow the doctor's advice for treatment and care. Additionally, maintaining good lifestyle and dietary habits can help promote recovery.
