They’ve seen an allergist and don’t have allergies or asthma. They asked their mom and didn’t have any rashes as a child. In the last year they’ve seen 4 other derm providers, had 4 biopsies, 8 steroid creams and want 1) to actually get better and 2) to know what food they need to avoid (since they’re certain food is causing it, even though all the other providers didn’t listen to them and told them food had nothing to do with it and the allergist gave them 14 foods to avoid that they tested positive to but avoiding them didn’t help). What do you do next? Two experts will talk about what to do when you DON’T think it’s atopic dermatitis (atopic dermatitis is too easy for us!) and how to manage the adult with an itchy rash – with special Masters level updates in allergic contact dermatitis patch testing and prurigo nodularis.
