Skin Allergy

A skin allergy is when skin becomes irritated because the immune system reacts to something that is usually harmless. This is called an allergic reaction. An allergic reaction can cause rash, itching, burning, redness, bumps, hives, and swelling. Many different allergens can cause a reaction. Below are some of the most common allergic conditions:

• Atopic dermatitis or eczema is when the skin becomes easily irritated, itchy, and dry.
• Allergic contact dermatitis is when something touches the skin and causes a reaction.
• Urticaria or hives are raised bumps on the skin that form because of an allergic reaction.
• Angioedema is swelling deep in the skin. It often happens in places like the eyelids, lips, and throat, and often happens together with hives.
