July 10, 2009 · No Comments · Uncategorized

Atopic dermatitis is a long lasting disease, which affects the skin. This illness belongs to the group of hereditary diseases, which tend to run in families, and many times they appear together. In this family of diseases we can find hay fever, asthma, and atopic dermatitis.When a person has atopic dermatitis, the skin will become very inflamed and itchy, and there will appear redness, swelling, weeping, crusting, cracking and scaling.
It was seen that the most affected by this disease are young children and infants, but atopic dermatitis can appear in the adult period as well, and it can even show up then for the first time. This disease has periods of flares and periods of remissions. When the disease gets worse, we say it is the period of flares, and when remissions come, skin improves or clears up entirely.It is known that in those who have inherited the atopic disease trait, the environmental conditions can activate at any time the symptoms of atopic dermatitis.
It is important to make the difference between atopic dermatitis and eczema. Eczema is the general term for many types of dermatitis, and atopic dermatitis is the most common of the types of eczema.We will describe some types of eczema.
Atopic dermatitis provokes an itchy, inflamed skin, and it is known as being a chronic disease. Seborrheic eczema has unknown causes, and it is characterized by yellowish, oily, scaly patches of skin on the scalp, face, and sometimes on other parts of the body as well.
The contact eczema is characterized by redness, itching, and burning. It is a local reaction due to the contact of the skin with an allergen or an irritant (such as an acid or a cleaning agent for example). Neurodermatitis is caused by a localized itch, develops scaly patches of skin on the head, lower legs, wrists, or forearms, and it becomes very irritated when it is scratched.
Dyshidrotic eczema is known to provoke clear, deep blisters that itch and burn, and this eczema is an irritation of the skin on the palms of hands and soles of the feet.We can also mention stasis dermatitis which is a skin irritation on the lower legs, that usually is related to circulatory problems, and nummular eczema which presents like coin-shaped patches of irritated skin, usually appears on the arms, back, buttocks, and lower legs, and can be crusted, scaling, and very itchy.
