A 34-year-old male patient Mr. R.K Sharma (ID-55312) started treatment from Dr. Thind for his complaint of atopic dermatitis on 3rd April 2021.
His Present Complaints were:
The patient complained of dry skin lesions over the arms and legs. He was suffering from itching and scaling for 10 years of his age. His skin had become hyperpigmented.
Later, he developed some vesicles over there which burst and led to the shedding of the skin which spread over the arms and legs with immense itching and yellowish discharge.
At the time of consultation, the skin was dry and crusty. He always used to scratch the eruption, but scratching resulted in burning and oozing from the affected site.
His complaints aggravated after scratching, in the summers, and by dust.
The patient was also suffering from anxiety.
History of present complaints:
His complaints started 6 years back. Initially, he had an eruption on his hands but the disease gradually spread day by day to his arms and legs. He was experiencing intense burning after scratching. His skin problem had made him anxious and depressed.
He had done the allergic test, and as per the reports he was allergic to many things, mainly to the dust mite.
Treatment history:
He took allopathic treatment (immunosuppressive medicines) and applied steroidal ointments for a long time, but there was no complete improvement in his complaints.
