Atopic Dermatitis & Related Disorders in Children
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic skin condition that causes dry, itchy, and inflamed skin in children. It often appears in infancy and may be associated with allergies, asthma, or hay fever. Other related pediatric skin conditions include seborrheic dermatitis (cradle cap), contact dermatitis, and allergic skin reactions.
Diaper Rash & Infantile Dermatitis
Diaper rash is a common skin irritation in infants caused by prolonged moisture, friction, or sensitivity to diapers. It appears as red, inflamed skin on the baby's bottom and can lead to discomfort. Proper skincare, frequent diaper changes, and medicated creams help soothe and heal the affected skin. If persistent, expert dermatological care ensures effective treatment for relief and prevention.
Bacterial and Viral Infections in Children
Children are more prone to bacterial and viral skin infections due to their developing immune systems. Bacterial infections like impetigo, cellulitis, and folliculitis often cause redness, swelling, and pus-filled sores. Viral infections such as warts, molluscum contagiosum, and hand-foot-and-mouth disease can lead to rashes, blisters, and skin irritation. .
Hair Disorders & Alopecia in Children
Hair diseases among children can manifest as excessive hair loss, patchy hair loss, or thinning hair. Alopecia areata causes sudden hair loss in round patches. Other causes include scalp infections (like tinea capitis), nutritional deficiencies, and genetic conditions.
