Skin disruptions account for 20% to 30% of pediatric primary care visits [1]. These disruptions may result from skin infections, inflammatory responses, Insect bites, and infestations. This article focuses on the identification and management of skin disruptions related to inflammatory dermatoses. The most common dermatoses in infancy are seborrheic dermatitis, (also known as cradle cap); diaper or primary contact dermatitis; and atopic dermatitis, more commonly referred to as eczema, an entity that has yet to be clearly defined. Recognition and appropriate treatment of these common pediatric dermatoses must not just focus on the skin disruptions; it is important that the infant be assessed within the context of the family. The primary care provider must be aware that these conditions have the potential to affect the developing relationship between the Infant, parent(s), and family. The practitioner within the provider-family relationship, through education and support, can empower the parent(s) to provide the necessary care for their Infant.
