How To Reduce Eczema Rashes In Children Naturally?
Atopic dermatitis is one of the most common types of eczema (called Vicharchika in Ayurveda) that is mainly seen among kids. The disease can affect anyone irrespective their age and gender. However, in most cases (roughly around 70-80%), kids are affected by atopic dermatitis.

Atopic Dermatitis- Meaning
In Ayurveda, this tvacha vikaara (skin disease) is considered the result of Tridosha imbalance, namely: Vata Dosha, Pitta Dosha, and Kapha dosha. Whereas Medical science names it a chronic inflammatory condition that mainly affects the skin. Here, the skin starts to lose its ability to protect itself from external harmful substances.
But there is good news too. This condition is not contagious at all. So if anyone is suffering from it, they do not necessarily have to maintain a physical distance from them.
Often patients try self-treatment measures including applying medicated creams, ointments, pastes, or even taking painkillers to cure atopic dermatitis disease. But this Be-Your-Own-Doctor philosophy often makes the condition worse by aggrevating the symptoms.
Relation between Atopic Dermatitis and Eczema
Well, there are simply no verses between these 2 terms because Atopic dermatitis is eczema itself. We can also say that it is a sub-type of eczema. Depending upon the varying causative factors and symptoms, Eczema can be of multiple types, and Atopic dermatitis is simply one of those types.
Who gets Atopic Dermatitis the most?
Although, the article has already mentioned that kids get this skin disease the most. It is because the immunity power of kids, and teenagers is comparatively low as compared to adults. Furthermore, their dietary choices of junk, excessively oily, fried, sugar-containing items, etc, further support the development of this skin disease.
In the Western medication system, often only skin-soothing ointments and creams are advised for eczema treatment, and no medications are given for kids because of their possible side effects. But not in the case of Ayurveda and Homeopathy.
Both are natural treatment pathies that focus more on the diet and lifestyle of a patient along with oral medications. Atopic dermatitis medicine in Ayurveda and Homeopathy is made mainly using natural ingredients and herbs that cause no side effects to the body. Anyone irrespective of age, if suffering from atopic dermatitis, or any other skin disease, can try these 2 holistic healing approaches for natural relief.
Atopic Dermatitis- Symptoms
Among patients, Atopic dermatitis symptoms can vary significantly depending on the severity, immune power, and ethnicity. But below are some common signs that confirm the presence of atopic dermatitis:
1. Itching, redness, and patches
2. Dryness and skin cracking
3. Scales and bumps
4. Skin warmness
5. Inflammation of the skin
6. Rashes that may ooze and weep fluid, or blood when scratched
Causes of Atopic Dermatitis
There exists no single cause that can be held responsible for this skin disease. The development of Atopic dermatitis is believed to be a result of certain internal stimuli and external environmental factors covering mainly:
1. Allergens: It is also possible that certain substances work as allergens and support the development of atopic dermatitis. It mainly includes pet dander, pollen, fumes, dust mites, animal waste, skin flakes, mold, etc.
2. Irritants: Besides allergens, there are also some agents that may increase the risk of atopic dermatitis. These agents basically include soaps, detergents, shampoos, washing-up liquids, bubble baths, and rough materials like wool.
3. Diet: The food a person consumes may also work as a prime cause for the occurrence of this skin problem. Gluten, excessive dairy, non-vegetarian diet, and all types of junk, fried, and processed foods are triggering heads that should be avoided in Atopic dermatitis.
4. Genes: In some cases, this type of eczema may run in families and a child may get it from their parents, either mother, father, or both.
5. Stress: When it comes to skin health, mental health is as important as physcial. Taking excessive stress often causes hormonal imbalance which further impairs the skin barrier, and damages the skin.

Use of herbs:
Countless herbs are there to help patients dealing with atopic dermatitis.

Diet is yet a crucial aspect that requires proper attention for the treatment of any health issue.
