Abstract

An inflammatory skin reaction known as contact dermatitis can be brought on by a variety of factors. Most frequently, substances from the outside of the body could be an irritant or allergen and induce an inflammatory response. Contact dermatitis is a common disease in the community, counting for 20% of the general population. Hence, the management of contact dermatitis is very important as many patients do not know that they had contact dermatitis and do not know how to treat them. The findings of this research are that contact dermatitis could be managed by applying the rule of 4R which stands for recognize, remove, reduce, and restore.
