Overview
The most common symptoms of atopic dermatitis include pruritus, distribution of rash on age- specific patters and dry skin. Patients often have personal or family history of asthma or allergic rhinitis. Patients with atopic dermatitis may report a positive history of cutaneous hyper-reactivity to diverse environmental stimuli and atopic disorders.
History and Symptoms
History
Patients with atopic dermatitis may have a positive history of:[1][2]
- Cutaneous hyper-reactivity to diverse environmental stimuli including:
- Atopic march: Development of clinical signs during childhood from atopic dermatitis to asthma to allergic rhinitis.[3][4][5]
- Cinical features of atopic dermatitis usually occur earlier in life.
- Asthma and allergic rhinitis usually occur later on in life.
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of atopic dermatitis include:[6]
- Severe pruritus: Can cause sleep disturbances in children[7][8]
- Chronic or relapsing skin lesions
