Contact dermatitis is a rash that occurs due to skin contact with an irritating or allergenic substance. Main symptoms include:
- Redness of the skin.
- Severe itching.
- Small blisters that may ooze.
- Appearance of scaly skin after a few days.
Treatment involves avoiding the irritating substance, using cold compresses to soothe the skin, and applying gentle moisturizers. The doctor may prescribe topical steroid creams for inflammation relief in some cases.
