Hi. Atopy is a condition where the skin is dry and is prone for infection and allergies. The condition gets better with age. All you need to do is use mild soap like dove and use a good moisturizer like physiogel AI cream. If there is any new lesion on the body, consult a dermatologist and get treated before it becomes a bigger problem. No need for allergy panels or expensive blood tests.
