Treatments for Dermatitis

When skin inflammation occurs, it can result in rashes, itchy skin, pain and blisters. Dermatitis is a general term for many types of skin inflammation conditions. Eczema, allergic rashes, blistering and other skin irritations are forms of dermatitis. The two main types of dermatitis are atopic and contact, which can impact people of all ages. At LM Medical NYC, our dermatology team offers treatments for dermatitis of all types at our clinic in Manhattan.

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis, or eczema, is a common form of dermatitis that affects infants, kids and adults. The condition is hereditary, not contagious, and it can appear in infants or later on in life. Atopic dermatitis begins as a red, itchy rash, often on the face of infants. Childhood, adolescent and adulthood atopic dermatitis spreads across the body, usually affecting the main joints with thicker, itchy rashes.

Atopic dermatitis treatment can include avoiding triggers and using topical and oral medications. There is not a cure, but with treatment from a dermatologist, the condition can be managed.

Contact Dermatitis

Contact dermatitis is experienced by the majority of the population in some form. This is a skin inflammation that occurs when the skin comes in contact with an allergen. Rashes, blisters, itching, burning and other symptoms can occur with contact dermatitis. Certain plants, like poison ivy or poison oak, can cause contact dermatitis. Allergic reactions caused by contact with perfumes, dyes, chemicals and many other substances can also result in skin inflammation.

Treatment for contact dermatitis can include using topical and oral medications, depending on the severity of the skin inflammation.

If you have itchy or painful rashes, blisters or bumps on your skin, you may be suffering from dermatitis. To receive a diagnosis and treatment for dermatitis, contact us at LM Medical NYC. Our board certified dermatologist, Dr. Morgan Rabach, is an expert on all things skin related. Call us today to schedule an appointment at our clinic in Greenwich Village.

  • Dr. Morgan Rabach and her staff provide top tier care and excellent service. Dr. Rabach is well-versed in the latest research. She made lots of time to discuss my dermatological history (what’s worked, what hasn’t worked, what hasn’t been tried) and all the available treatments to find the best path forward. She didn’t settle - pushing to make sure I got the best results possible. Would recommend without any reservations!

  • I have been seeing both Dr. Lesley & Dr. Morgan now for almost about three years now. Each time is better than the last. I trust them for natural results & they always deliver. What I value most is that they are never pushy! Always open, honest, and they are just overall good people.

  • The staff are incredibly friendly and so helpful. The wait times are very short, the space is clean and modern, and they're very quick to respond to questions over the phone or email. I needed a detailed receipt for my insurance and they gave me two different versions until my insurance was satisfied. The doctors are friendly, laid back, and really listen which is awesome. Would highly recommend!!
