Eczema

Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a chronic skin condition characterized by dry, itchy skin, which can lead to small raised bumps or red patches, and severe skin inflammation. These symptoms can significantly disrupt daily life and are often accompanied by other dermatological issues such as contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and even skin infections due to the compromised barrier of the skin. As a part of a group of allergic conditions including hay fever, eczema is closely linked to an overly sensitive immune system. At Perschbacher Dermatology, we recognize the importance of comprehensive skin care tailored to managing these symptoms. Our approach includes a variety of treatment options, such as topical medications like corticosteroids and calcineurin inhibitors, including newer systemic treatment options which have led to great improvement in quality of life for many severe eczema patients..
