Frequently Asked Questions

Atopic dermatitis, often called eczema, is a chronic skin condition characterised by red, itchy, and inflamed patches of skin. It's common among children and can continue into adulthood.

The exact cause is still not known, but it's believed to be caused due to genetic and environmental factors. An overactive immune response and a compromised skin barrier play roles.

No, atopic dermatitis is not contagious. It's a non-infectious skin condition caused by internal factors rather than external pathogens.

While there is no cure, atopic dermatitis can be managed effectively with proper skincare, medications, and lifestyle changes to reduce symptoms and flare-ups.

Triggers can include allergens (pollen, pet dander), irritants (harsh soaps, fabrics), temperature changes, stress, and certain foods.

A dermatologist typically diagnoses atopic dermatitis based on your medical history, physical examination, and possibly allergy tests.

Treatment includes moisturising, using topical corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, antihistamines, and, in severe cases, oral medications or biologic drugs.

Some natural remedies might help alleviate symptoms, but consult your doctor before trying them. They should complement, not replace, medical treatment.

The visible nature of the condition and its discomfort can lead to anxiety and depression. Seeking support from healthcare professionals is important.

Severe cases may increase the risk of skin infections. Regular dermatologist visits can help prevent complications.

Limited sun exposure can help, but excessive sun exposure can worsen symptoms. Use sunscreen and consult your dermatologist.

Treatment approaches vary by age, with infants, children, and adults requiring tailored management plans.
