| Core Tip |
Hematidrosis is an extremely rare condition characterized by spontaneous bleeding through intact skin, often triggered by emotional stress. This systematic review evaluates the efficacy and safety of beta-blockers, particularly propranolol, in managing hematidrosis. The findings indicate that propranolol can significantly reduce symptom frequency and severity, especially when combined with psychotherapy. By focusing solely on clinical studies involving beta-blocker use, this review bridges a critical gap in the literature and highlights the need for standardized treatment protocols and controlled clinical trials. The results support a multidisciplinary approach targeting both physiological and psychological triggers. |
