Dermatitis types and treatment
When skin is affected by dermatitis, it may blister, ooze, and develop a crust or flake off. Dermatitis can affect anyone during their lifetime and can be very bothersome – why? Mainly because it’s itchy, some people may describe it as being very painful and for others, they will be impacted by the way it looks.
There are different causes for the different types of dermatitis which we will discuss in the next few sections.
Don’t worry, you can come back and finish the assessment in your own time.
