Atopic eczema from the perspective of an allergist
Allergist should be an integral part of a comprehensive care for atopic eczema. Allergist should prioritize the detection of potential and right triggers. There are plenty of diagnostic procedures, but the interpretation of results is difficult. The treatment success often necessarily includes a therapeutic trial, for example the elimination diet, a variety of immunointerventions or even the specific immunotherapy by etiologically relevant aeroallergens.
