Eczema and Allergic Skin Conditions
Eczema (atopic dermatitis) and allergic skin conditions are among the most common reasons people visit a dermatologist. They present as itchy, red, inflamed patches that can significantly disrupt daily life and sleep. Atopic dermatitis often runs in families and is associated with asthma and hay fever. Contact dermatitis occurs when the skin reacts to specific allergens or irritants (metals, cosmetics, detergents). Urticaria (hives) causes itchy welts and can be triggered by food, medications, or infections. In Pune's varying climate, these conditions often flare during seasonal changes.
How We Treat Eczema & Allergies at DermcareMD
Dr. Neha Athalye at DermcareMD, Kothrud, takes a systematic approach: identifying triggers through detailed history and patch testing (for contact dermatitis), providing acute flare management with appropriate medications, and establishing a long-term maintenance plan including barrier repair with medical emollients, trigger avoidance strategies, and step-up/step-down therapy. For moderate-to-severe eczema, advanced options including calcineurin inhibitors and targeted therapies are available. The aim is to break the itch-scratch cycle, restore the skin barrier, and prevent recurrence.
