Skin Deep

When an irritant like paint solvent or an allergen like poison ivy contacts the skin, contact dermatitis develops if the person is allergic to the substance. This inflammation of the outer layers of skin generally appears wherever the skin was exposed. Geisinger dermatologists conduct patch testing over a specific period of time to identify the chemical or allergen, and determine the best treatment.
