People with AD often have dry and scaly skin that spans the entire body, except perhaps the diaper area, and intensely itchy red, splotchy, raised lesions to form in the bends of the arms or legs, face, and neck.[6][7][8][9][10] These lesions then weep, crack, swell, and crust over.[10] These lesions are at a heightened risk for bacterial, fungal, or viral colonisation.[10]
