What is atopic dermatitis?
It is a chronic inflammatory disease of the skin manifested by increased ability to form immunoglobulin E (allergic antibodies), increasing vulnerability to asthma and allergic rhinitis and hereditary nature to a lowered entry of protein. The skin is marked by red, thick, swelling, watery skin resulting from constant rubbing and scratching, excoriation and crusting mainly on surfaces of the elbow and knee. It is called infantile eczema in infants.
