Triggers For Atopic Dermatitis Flare-Ups

Food Allergens

Specific food allergens may lead to an exacerbation of symptoms in patients with allergic and atopic dermatitis. The most common culprits are eggs, peanuts, wheat, milk, soy, and fish, but there are many more. The best way of improving flare-ups is by avoiding specific dietary allergens. However, parents should not stop giving them foods that might be suspected of causing eczema when it comes to children. Instead, they need to talk to a pediatrician or dermatologist first to help them find safe alternatives and create well-rounded dietary plans. Some of the atopic dermatitis symptoms caused by a food allergen are the formation of tiny bumps that can ooze and crust over increased redness, dryness, swelling, and itching that tends to worsen at night. Bear in mind that these symptoms may appear immediately after eating an offending food or even many days later.
