Atopic Dermatitis Treatment

Atopic Dermatitis is a common type of eczema. This disease was first been diagnosed in the year 1933 by Fred Wise. In past decades eczema was been treated with the help of a diary free diet and skimmed milk and baked fish. Atopic Dermatitis is caused by the inflammatory immune response.
