Dermatitis/eczema

Dermatitis, commonly referred to as eczema, is a condition that causes inflamed, irritated skin. It can appear as red, itchy patches, dryness, or blistering. Various factors can trigger it, including allergens, irritants, stress, and changes in temperature. While it can affect anyone, it's particularly common in children. Treatment often includes moisturizing creams and topical steroids to reduce inflammation and itching. Although eczema can be uncomfortable, with proper management, most people can find relief and minimize flare-ups in their daily lives.
