What is Irritant Dermatitis?<\/h1>\n

One of the most common type of rash is called \u201cIrritant Dermatitis.\u201d It is caused by frequent or prolonged exposure of the skin to irritating substances.<\/p>\n

These may include:<\/p>\n

1. warm or hot water <\/em>used for frequent hand washing, bathing or cleaning.<\/em><\/p>\n

2. soaps and detergents.<\/em><\/p>\n

3. fragrances<\/em> in cosmetics, deodorants, perfumes, and even moisturizers.<\/p>\n

4. solvents<\/em> such as rubbing alcohol, cleaning supplies, or chemical agents\u00a0encountered at home,\u00a0work, or during hobbies.<\/p>\n

Affected skin is usually rough, red, scaly, and can sometimes<\/em> have blisters<\/em> initially.<\/p>\n

It may itch, burn, or be painful<\/em>. The hands and fingers are frequently involved, but any skin area can be affected. It is more common, and often worse during the cold, dry winter months when skin loses moisture more easily.<\/p>\n<\/div>
