ATOPIC DERMATITIS

Atopic Dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by dry, itchy, red, and inflamed patches. It commonly starts in childhood but can affect people of all ages. The condition tends to flare up periodically and is linked to a defective skin barrier and immune system hypersensitivity.

​

What Are the Symptoms?

  • Intense itching

  • Red, dry, cracked, or scaly skin

  • Thickened, leathery patches (lichenification) from chronic scratching

  • Commonly affects the face, neck, inside of elbows, behind knees, and hands

  • May ooze or crust during flare-ups

​​

Causes & Triggers

  • Genetic predisposition (family history of eczema, asthma, allergies)

  • Environmental triggers (dry air, irritants, allergens, harsh soaps)

  • Stress and infections

  • Food allergies or sensitivities (in some cases)
