Answer:
Dear
Patricia,
The following
is a list of most commons treatments for Atopic Dermatitis:
++ Immunosuppressants or immunomodulators, A class of nonsteroidal
medications such as tacrolimus (Protopic) and pimecrolimus (Elidel).The
Food and Drug Administration recommends that Elidel and Protopic be
used only when other treatments have failed,.
++ Hydrocortisone-containing
lotions.
++ Clobex®
(clobetasol propionate). A super-potent topical steroid .
++ Cytokines.
Chemicals produced by cells that take care of unwanted infections
and altered cells, in order to communicate and orchestrate the attack.
++ Emollients.
Because of the nature of their fairly short-lived effects, have to
be applied in plentiful amounts.
++ Steroid
creams reduce skin inflammations and are still the mainstay approach
of many practitioners.
++ Willow-Herb
(Epilobium hirsutum).With A potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
activity.
++ Tea
Tree Oil, which is an antiseptic, a fungicide, and a mild solvent.
++ Cardiospermum
Halicacabum, In traditional. medicine in Africa and Asia it is used
dermally.
++ Aloe
Vera. A vast research has been done on aloe vera and proved to be
very effective and significant in the treatment of skin disorders.
++ Hyaluronic
Acid. In skin tissue, hyaluronic acid is a jelly-like substance that
fills the space between collagen and elastin fibres
++ Melaleuca
alternifolia oil. Melaleuca oil is very effective in quite low dilutions,
so the undiluted oil never has to come into contact with the skin.
Even so, it is important to patch test the oil or product on a small
area of skin, before it is used fully.
++ Light
therapy, which involves exposing your skin to controlled amounts of
natural or artificial light.
++ Diet
restriction avoiding alcohol, coffee, spicy foods, dairy products,
seafood, and red meats.
++ A
great deal of time in deep sleep and intense exercise to extenuation.
++ In
some cases, the best treatment is to do nothing to the area.
There
is promising preliminary support from laboratory, animal, and human
studies that topical aloe gel has immunomodulatory properties that
may improve wound healing and skin inflammation.
