Atopic dermatitis, or eczema, is a condition that makes the skin red and itchy. It is common in children but can occur at any age. Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and tends to flare periodically. It may be accompanied by asthma or hay fever. No cure has been found for atopic dermatitis, but treatments and self-care measures such as avoiding harsh soaps, moisturising, and applying medicated creams or ointments, can relieve itching and prevent new outbreaks.
Pruritus, or itchy skin, is an uncomfortable, irritating sensation that makes a person want to scratch. It is often caused by dry skin and is more common in older adults, as skin tends to become drier with age. Depending on the cause of the itchiness, the skin may appear normal, red, rough or bumpy. Repeated scratching can cause raised thick areas of skin that might bleed or become infected. Many people find relief with self-care measures such as moisturising daily, using gentle cleansers and bathing with lukewarm water. Long-term relief requires identifying and treating the cause of itchy skin. Common treatments are medicated creams, moist dressings and oral anti-itch medicines.
This book presents 30 clinical cases of patients with atopic dermatitis or pruritus. Each case is explained in a step-by-step manner, detailing history and symptoms, investigation techniques, diagnosis, and management. Many cases cover comorbid conditions associated with these skin disorders.
Authored by recognised experts from worldwide Atopic Dermatitis Centres of Reference and Excellence (ADCARE), the practical text is further enhanced by photographs and figures.
