Pediatric Dermatology

Pediatric Dermatology is a specialized branch of dermatology focused on diagnosing and treating skin conditions in infants, children, and adolescents. This field addresses a wide range of skin issues, from common conditions like eczema and diaper rash to more complex genetic disorders and birthmarks.Atopic dermatitis, or eczema, is one of the most frequent pediatric skin conditions, characterized by itchy, inflamed skin that often affects the face, elbows, and knees. Effective management involves moisturizing, avoiding triggers, and using topical treatments to control inflammation. Diaper rash, another common concern, results from prolonged exposure to moisture and irritants. Treatment includes frequent diaper changes and the use of barrier creams.Birthmarks, including hemangiomas and port-wine stains, often require specialized care. Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that typically appear shortly after birth, sometimes necessitating medical or laser treatment to prevent complications. Port-wine stains are flat, red to purple birthmarks that can be treated with laser therapy for cosmetic and health reasons.Pediatric dermatologists also manage conditions like psoriasis, which can present differently in children compared to adults, often appearing in the diaper area or as guttate psoriasis following a streptococcal infection. Molluscum contagiosum and warts, caused by viral infections, are also common in pediatric patients and may require treatments ranging from topical therapies to cryotherapy.
