<p>La <a href="/Article?contentid=773&language=French">dermatite atopique</a> est une maladie chronique (de longue durée) de la peau qui peut prendre de nombreuses formes.

Utilisez un humidificateur et continuez à hydrater la peau de votre enfant.</li><li>Les mois chauds, aidez votre enfant à ne pas transpirer.</li><li>Protégez la peau de votre enfant du soleil.</li></ul>
