Nummular Dermatitis:
Nummular dermatitis appears as circular or coin-shaped patches of irritated skin that can be itchy or scaly. It is more common in drier climates and during the winter months.
Treatment Approaches:
Prescription or over-the-counter creams, ointments, or lotions containing corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, or other anti-inflammatory agents can help reduce inflammation, itching, and redness.
Regularly applying moisturizers and emollients can help restore and maintain the skin's natural moisture barrier, reducing dryness and preventing flare-ups.
 Identifying and avoiding triggers, such as specific irritants, allergens, or environmental factors, is crucial in managing dermatitis. Our team will guide you in understanding potential triggers and provide lifestyle recommendations to minimize exposure.
For acute or severe cases, wet dressings or bandages soaked in medicated solutions may be recommended to help soothe and heal the affected areas.

In some cases, light therapy (phototherapy) using ultraviolet (UV) light may be beneficial for managing dermatitis symptoms and reducing inflammation
