What is Chronic Skin Allergy ?

Chronic skin allergy is a long-lasting inflammatory skin condition caused by an overreaction of the immune system to allergens or irritants. Unlike temporary rashes, chronic allergies persist or recur over weeks, months, or even years, leading to itching, redness, dryness, and discomfort. Common conditions include eczema (atopic dermatitis), contact dermatitis, urticaria (hives), and chronic pruritus.Struggling with recurring skin allergies?
