The dermatitis, allergic (or the eczema are allergic) is an inflammatory reaction (immune) of the skin, caused by a hypersensitivity of mast cells of the immune system to a substance ( allergen ) and / or congenital problems of synthesizing fatty acid gamma-linolenic ( neurodermatitis , atopic eczema ).

Etiology

The latter, initially present only in the area of contact, can also be extended elsewhere. The itching is less important than the irritant contact forms.
Allergy Desensitization
The allergy desensitization is based on the use of identified allergens taken by the patient for long periods of time: one two three years. The determination of the allergen or allergens responsible for the allergic reaction can be identified at present with various tests such as the prick test or patch test, or the measurement of serum Rast for each or group of allergens, in addition to the total IgE assay.
