What is atopic dermatitis?

Atopic dermatitis usually occurs as reddish, itchy skin, but may be oozing and crusty in severe cases. It generally begins early in life at which time it is commonly referred to as “infantile eczema”. Atopic dermatitis is characterised by flare-ups and remission, and tends to follow distinct patterns during infancy, childhood and adult life.

What can you do about atopic dermatitis?

It’s important to protect the skin from further drying and irritation and to prevent damage caused by scratching. Using emollient bath oils and moisturising treatments will help soothe and improve the condition of the skin.
You should also avoid anything that can irritate the skin, such as soap, fragrance and products containing lanolin.
Wear loose, comfortable clothes and pat skin dry after bathing or showering.
