Skin Problems

Atopic dermatitis is a skin disease characterized by itchy, inflamed skin and it is the most common type of eczema.  The cause of atopic dermatitis is not known, but it is believed to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Atopic dermatitis is also considered to be associated with malfunction of the body’s immune system (the system that recognizes and helps fight bacteria and viruses that invade the body).
