Millions Worldwide Suffer from Allergies and Skin Sensitivities
Allergies and sensitivities are a common problem affecting millions of people worldwide. Allergies can manifest in many different ways, including skin conditions. Symptoms occur when the body overreacts to a substance that is usually harmless, such as foods, contactants or environmental exposures. While many people associate allergies and sensitivity symptoms with sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes, they can also cause skin conditions that can be just as frustrating and uncomfortable.
Allergies can contribute to skin conditions in a variety of ways. In some cases, the allergen may come into direct contact with the skin, leading to an allergy symptom. In other cases, the allergen may be ingested or inhaled, but still trigger a skin reaction.
9.2 Million people reported skin allergies just from kids in the past 12 months.

When an allergen comes into contact with the skin, it can cause a variety of skin conditions. The most common skin conditions associated with allergies and sensitivities include eczema, hives, and contact dermatitis. The most common form of treatment is avoidance, which isn’t always easy or even possible.
Allergic reactions that affect the skin can take on many different forms. One of the most common is urticaria, also known as hives, which are red, itchy welts that can appear anywhere on the body. Hives can be triggered by a variety of allergens, including foods, medications, insect bites, pets, dust mites, pollens or latex, just to name a few. They typically last for a few hours or up to a few days.
Hives effect 20% of the population at some point in their lives.
Another common skin condition caused by allergies is atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema. This is a chronic inflammatory condition that causes the skin to become red, itchy, and dry. It often appears on the face, neck, hands, and feet, and can be triggered by a variety of factors, including allergens to foods like dairy, sugar, wheat or corn or things like dust mites or pet dander can also trigger eczema flare-ups.
Eczema affects an estimated 30% of the U.S. population, mostly children and adolescents.
Allergic contact dermatitis is an additional type of skin condition that arises due to exposure to an allergen. This type of dermatitis occurs when the skin comes into direct contact with an allergen, such as latex, nickel, poison ivy or certain chemicals. Symptoms may include redness, itching, swelling, and blisters.
