Symptoms of Contact Dermatitis
What are the symptoms?
Irritant
Acute means the appearance of acute irritant dermatitis can vary from a mild reaction, which is a transient redness to a painful burn with blisters.
Chronic: Chronic irritant dermatitis often usually begins with red plates, dry, slightly inflamed localized, which over time become hyperkeratotic and rough.
Allergic
Acute eczema develops at the site of contact with the allergen. For example, the first sign might be a wheal (a raised skin lesion small diameter) under a slope or along the waist to touch anything containing rubber (socks, underwear …). The eczema usually develops in an area of redness with edema, vesicles and small blisters. The reaction can be extended or appear in a different place than previously sensitized site of contact. Occasionally, hives can be developed by contact with allergens or volatile liquid particles.
Chronic exposure to the allergen if the skin is persistently dry, eroded and crusty. Appears later flaking and a change in pigmentation.
