Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi.
As per your case history of atopic dermatitis, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid using any new products like soap or perfume as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply an emollient cream like Enmoist cream twice daily on dry skin.
3. Apply a mild topical steroid cream like mometasone cream on the lesions twice daily.
4. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine for itching.
5. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
