A 4-year-old boy named Aman Singh(ID-58347) was brought to Dr Thind for his atopic dermatitis complaints on 3rd March 2021.
His Present complaints were:
The patient presented a red elevated papular eruption on the cheeks, arms, and elbow folds associated with severe itching.
The skin of the child was dry and had cracks in the affected area.

During the examination, when we asked his mother to undress him, then he started scratching the eruption, and the intensity of the itching increased.
