Allergic Dermatitis

Do you get red, itching rashes around your ankles hours after trekking in the woods? Have you worn a new necklace and developed a rash on your neck? Has a beach afternoon left you with hives all over your face? If your answer is yes to any of the above questions, then you have developed an Allergic dermatitis. Allergic dermatitis is a skin ailment brought on by exposure to anything to which one is allergic or sensitive.

Overview


This skin illness develops when something touches your skin and either irritates it or triggers an allergic reaction. Itchy skin frequently appears first, then a rash. The rash will appear. Usually pink or crimson, the area is irritating. In severe situations, Blisters could also be visible. Blisters filled with clear fluid may develop from contact dermatitis, which might seem flat or elevated. These rashes don't often appear right away after exposure, however, some people react to them faster than others.



Causes


Many different allergens can produce allergic contact dermatitis, which necessitates at least two independent exposures. The person becomes more sensitive to the agent in issue after the first exposure, and the rash appears after the second encounter. Common allergies include,

  • Adhesives, such as those used for toupees or fake eyelashes. 

  • Antibiotics are applied topically to the skin, like neomycin. 

  • Textiles and apparel, encompassing materials and colors. 

  • Scents are found in moisturizers, soaps, cosmetics, and fragrances.

  • Among plants are poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. 

  • Latex or rubber gloves and shoes. 

  • Preservatives in over-the-counter topical medications and Food additives and coloring Formaldehyde is a substance found in many industrial goods.


Symptoms


Not every case of allergic contact dermatitis results in an immediate cutaneous reaction. Alternatively, symptoms could appear anywhere between Twelve and seventy-two hours after exposure. Allergy-induced contact dermatitis symptoms include,

  • Skin that feels burning but doesn't have any obvious skin sores 

  • Blistering spots that may flow 

  • Dry, scaly skin hives - Itchy red skin that can appear in patches of sun sensitivity
