A source of disease may be any substance (usually harmless to other associates), on which the immune system reacts, as a foreign object that you want to delete and withdraw from body. Skin reaction is a kind of signal fault.

Causes of dermatitis

Dermatitis (treatment performed after the determination of the cause of the disease) can be caused by three basic factors provoking.

Factors causing dermatitis development	Brief description of the action on the body
Biological	Predisposition to genetic level	In the presence of disease in the immediate family, the child increases the likelihood of developing the disease (because of the possible presence of genes responsible for the manifestation of dermatitis)
Weak immune system, due to serious illness, the presence of chronic diseases	Immunity can not resist pathogen pathology resulting from even small concentrations of the stimulus can trigger a striking manifestation of dermatitis symptoms.
Nervous, physical or mental strain	When you overload the body can not respond normally to stimuli, there is a malfunction of many organs, including the immune system.
Adverse living conditions	Malnutrition, from incomplete healing of diseases due to low material well weakens functioning of the immune system.
Infectious diseases	These diseases provoke the weakening of immunity. Therapy may also be carried medicaments provoking dermatitis development.
Abnormalities in the immune system	In autoimmune diseases, the immune system perceives irritating factors for foreign substances and sends a signal to destroy them.
Chemical	Household chemicals	Substance may contain aggressive components causing disease development.
Not decorative and decorative cosmetics
Acids and alkalis	They are potent reagents.
Medications (particularly potent)	Components medicaments can themselves trigger the development of dermatitis, and also antibiotics and hormonal results in severely immunocompromised.
The compositions used in construction (lime, adhesive solutions)	Development of dermatitis caused by the presence in the composition of the causative agent.
synthetic fabrics
foods with preservatives and chemical components
Furniture made of low-quality wood with aggressive components
Physical	Prolonged exposure to cold (frostbite) or heat (burns)	These states are characterized by disturbance of metabolic processes in the epidermis, which may trigger a manifestation of disease symptoms.
Effects on the skin to ultraviolet rays
Damage to the epidermis current discharge	Current and radiation can provoke disruption of the immune system.
Exposure to radiation
Prolonged compression of the skin or rubbing	Disturbed metabolism in the injured area, also increases the risk of penetration of agent through the skin in mikrossadiny and scratches.
Contact with animal or vegetable	Animals and plants in the process of life, release substances able to provoke dermatitis development.
insect bites	If bite occurs blood flow to the site of injury, and in blood can flow agent activators.
Unfavorable ecological environment	Increased content of dust, moisture or chemical substances in water and air cause weakening of the immune system, and also can independently cause dermatitis development.

If you suspect dermatitis development necessary to identify predisposing factor, then a specialist will be able to pick up the necessary complex treatment.
