atopic dermatitis

Description

Atopic dermatitis is the collective term for the endless protest demonstration called itchiness happening on the stage of your skin. The itch is not merely a symptom but an extreme performance of self-expression that intensifies the more you scratch. Moisturizer is the set decoration, steroids are the potent prop, and doctors are the directors of this infinite loop. Those who cling to the illusion of a cure will only savor their despair more vividly. All we can do is watch, helpless, as the skin’s desperate cry for survival unfolds.

Definitions

• A kingdom of endless itch born from the conspiracy of dry skin and an overzealous immune system.
• Proof of a perpetual rivalry where treatment and flare-ups join hands never to reconcile.
• A ritualistic self-investment play performed every time moisturizer is applied.
• A tragicomedy of the skin repeatedly forging and then breaking a dangerous friendship called steroids.
• The nocturnal invader whose itchiness turns savage at midnight and robs you of sleep.
• The ultimate exam of self-management, constantly testing your will to resist the itch.
• A skin performer that gathers both pity from others and sympathy from doctors simultaneously.
• A perverse affection for the illusion of a cure, although remission is a known deception.
• A self-destructive cycle fueled by the vicious loop of scratching accelerating the itch.
