A member asked:
Is acupuncture/herbal doctors knowlegeable of atopic dermatitis as much as dermatologist? or is dermatologist more suitable
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Use both: Any primary care physician can treat most atopic dermatitis. If it's especially challenging, or you're going to need something fancy like topical tacrolimus, get with your dermatologist. Atopical dermatitis is serious stuff and use acupuncture / herbal as useful supplements, don't spend excessively & be savvy. Much of the daily management is accurate knowledge about your illness & partnering.
