What is Atopic Dermatitis?
Atopic Dermatitis is a chronic, non-contagious inflammatory skin disease caused by a combination of genetic, immune, and environmental factors. People with atopic dermatitis have a weakened skin barrier, making their skin more sensitive to irritants, allergens, and infections.
- Caused by skin barrier gene defects (e.g. filaggrin mutations) and immune dysregulation.
- Increases susceptibility to environmental allergens, irritants, and secondary microbial infections.
- Can be effectively controlled with early diagnosis, trigger management, and specialized medical care.

- Severe itching (especially at night)
- Dry and rough skin
- Red, inflamed skin patches
- Thickened skin due to repeated scratching
