Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis)
Patients with eczema or atopic dermatitis are often described as having skin that is itchy, dry, sensitive, and easily irritated. The skin can become inflamed as a result of many factors: dryness, aging of the skin, cold weather, over washing, a reaction to topical or oral medications, and contact with irritants as well as underlying skin diseases. Treatment of dermatitis entails replenishing the skin's moisture, calming the inflammation, and removing any possible allergic triggers. This can be achieved by utilizing a combination of cleansers, moisturizers, prescription oral and topical medications.
