Description
Review

Atopic dermatitis in infants and children is prevalent worldwide, with newer studies coming up each year. However, it remains a disease which significantly decreases the quality of life of the affected children as well as their parents and can remain a cause of loss of sleep, school days, and economic burden. Treatment is aimed at decreasing dryness of the skin and pruritus and thus making the quality of life better of the patient. Clinical manifestations of the disease can vary in different countries as also among children and adults. Recognition of minor features of the disease as well as atypical features is also important. Although the mainstay of treatment remains moisturizers, topical steroids, and topical calcineurin inhibitors, now there is also crisaborole, tofacitinib, abrocitinib, other JAK inhibitors, and the biological dupilumab. However, one must also tactfully use age-old treatment and combine it skillfully with newer advances to improve the life of the affected child. Psychological counselling is an important part of management.

Atopic dermatitis, also known as atopic eczema, is a very common skin condition that is characterized by severe itching, dry, scaling, or crusting skin, and red spots. It often appears in infants during the first year of life and can worsen, which has a significant effect on the quality of life associated with health. This extensive book covers the most recent advancements in the knowledge of and treatment for atopic dermatitis.
For those working in allergy and general medicine, such as pediatricians, allergists, and primary care physicians, as well as dermatologists.
This book will be a great resource for diagnosis and treatment.
