Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by persistent itching, dryness, and recurrent eczematous lesions. It commonly begins in childhood and is associated with genetic, immunologic, and environmental factors. The condition results from impaired skin barrier function and immune dysregulation, leading to frequent flare-ups. Although long term, symptoms can be effectively controlled with proper skincare and medical management.
