Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and tends to flare periodically and then subside. It may be accompanied by asthma or hay fever.For example, it helps to avoid harsh soaps and other irritants, apply medicated creams or ointments, and moisturize your skin. See your doctor if your atopic dermatitis symptoms distract you from your daily routines or prevent you from sleeping.
