Contact Dermatitis
Contact Dermatitis is an inflammatory skin response resulting from direct contact with irritants or allergens. Symptoms include redness, itching, and blistering. Occurring in both acute and chronic forms, contact dermatitis can be diagnosed through patch testing. Treatment involves avoiding triggers and applying topical corticosteroids to reduce inflammation.
