hi
atopic dermatitis is very common condition in child age
it will reduce as she grow old
what u need is to use good moisturizer daily
there is no direct relation between food and dermatitis
but better to avoid sour ,spicy food .
protein food is better
ragi will not create problem.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic

Atopic dermatitis patients usually may be allergic to peanuts, shell fish, tree nuts, milk, eggs. If Skin prick tests are done Doctors will be in a better position to tell you which food she will be allergic to.
