llergic dermatitis occurs when the skin comes into contact with a substance that triggers an allergic reaction in the body. This condition is caused by the immune system recognizing certain chemicals or materials as harmful, even though they may be harmless to most people. When a person with this sensitivity touches or is exposed to the allergen, their skin may become red, swollen, itchy, and sometimes develop blisters or dry, scaly patches. The reaction is typically delayed, appearing anywhere from several hours to a few days after exposure.
At iskindermatology, we specialize in identifying the specific allergens responsible for your symptoms through detailed history-taking and, when necessary, patch testing. Our treatment approach may include topical or oral medications to reduce inflammation and itching, as well as personalized advice on how to avoid triggers in daily life. With proper management, we aim to relieve discomfort, speed up healing, and help you maintain healthy, irritation-free skin
