"Atopic dermatitis is an inflammatory skin disease characterized in acute phase by exudative lesions (watery discharge from the skin affected by the inflammatory process), redness, swelling and intense itching, and in chronic phase skin that becomes dry and hard, itchy. It is the consequence of an alteration in the hydrolipid barrier function of the epidermis, the outer layer of the skin.
