Atopic Dermatitis - Neurodermatitis

Atopic dermatitis, commonly known as eczema, is a chronic skin condition that causes red, itchy, and inflamed skin. Neurodermatitis is a related condition where constant scratching leads to thickened, leathery patches on the skin. This often results from itching caused by things like stress or irritation. Both conditions are linked to immune system responses and can be influenced by genetics and environmental factors. Managing atopic dermatitis and neurodermatitis typically involves moisturizing the skin, avoiding irritants, and sometimes using medications to reduce inflammation and control itching.
