Atopic Dermatitis – When Itching becomes a Problem

Approximately three people out of a hundred suffer from neurodermatitis, medically known as atopic dermatitis. First symptoms often occur early in life as patchy rashes during the first or second year. Later on the symptoms generally withdraw to the bends of the joints. Patients with atopic dermatitis have to ensure thorough basic skin treatment for the whole of their lives.
