Has your soft and smooth skin turned into a scaly and itchy skin? If you nodded along positively, you might be suffering from dermatitis. Skin sensitivity to allergens along with environmental triggers affect your skin adversely and leave a mark on the skin. However, following certain simple tips can help you get back your smooth and soft skin. Let’s have a look at what dermatitis is and how you can get back your healthy, soft skin.

As the name suggests, Dermatitis is the inflammation of the skin. The main symptom of this skin condition is pruritis which means itching. The unpleasant itching due to dermatitis occurs because the skin has been exposed to a substance that causes an allergic reaction. A genetic link is often observed in cases of sensitive skin. Dermatitis is a term for a range of varied inflammation of the skin of varying etiology. Every individual reacts differently. Let’s check different causes of dermatitis in different age-groups

Many factors can trigger dermatitis, and they include stress, allergy, sweating, certain food items like soy & wheat, perfumes, metal, jewelry, detergents, soap, cleansers, ointments, diaper, and working in industrial solvents. Also, an extremely dry climate can trigger dermatitis.

In children, it may occur as a diaper rash due to natural chemicals found in the urine and stool. In childhood, dermatitis may occur around the mouth due to the drooling of natural components of saliva.

In adults, allergic contact dermatitis can vary from person to person, as the immune response varies from patient to patient. So, the symptoms would also vary. The causative factor of every skin problem differs and the duration and flare-up would also differ.

There is a skin barrier dysfunction that causes dry and itchy skin associated with environmental and food allergies. Other risk factors, such as age, allergy, occupation, certain health conditions, certain medications, psychological stress, and anxiety, can aggravate existing dermatitis by affecting the immune system.

So, if you have redness, dryness, and itching, it is suggestive that you have dermatitis. A flare-up can occur in any part of the body that can be itchy and tempt you to scratch the skin. To relieve this itching, you try many corticosteroids in the form of cream and ointment. If symptoms are severe, oral corticosteroids that can be taken orally or injectables may be prescribed. However, these medicines do not treat the root cause of dermatitis and the flare-ups may occur. Also, corticosteroids have side-effects in the long run, and it becomes difficult to tackle the flare-ups. So, the question arises on how to get back your normal texture of the skin. A moisturizer is essential to relieve you of the dry skin. To treat dermatitis, skin lotions and creams are not the only solutions. Select a natural mode of treatment.

Go for homeopathy at any age including childhood. This natural treatment can relieve you of dermatitis efficiently and gently without any side-effects and, in the long run, can prevent reoccurrence and flare-ups.
