TRATAMENTO<br />

TREATMENT<br />

O tratamento varia com a forma de<br />

agressão.<br />

As dermatites irritativas por esponjas<br />

devem ser inicialmente tratadas com<br />

aplicação de fitas adesivas para tentativa<br />

de retirada das espículas corporais. A<br />

inflamação resultante pode ser<br />

medicada com cremes e pomadas de<br />

corticóides por cerca de uma semana.<br />

Treatment is obviously to differ<br />

according to different forms of injury.<br />

Irritative dermatitis caused by sponges<br />

should be initially treated with<br />

adhesive bands that help remove the<br />

very thin spiculae. The resulting<br />

inflammation may be medicated with<br />

topic application of creams and<br />

corticoid gels for as long as a week.<br />
