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.
皮肤问题占儿科初级保健就诊病例的20%至30%[1]。这些问题可能由皮肤感染、炎症反应、昆虫叮咬和寄生虫感染引起。本文重点关注与炎症性皮肤病相关的皮肤问题的识别和管理。婴儿期最常见的皮肤病是脂溢性皮炎（也称为摇篮帽）、尿布疹或原发性接触性皮炎，以及特应性皮炎，更常被称为湿疹，这是一种尚未明确界定的病症。对这些常见儿科皮肤病的识别和适当治疗不能仅仅关注皮肤问题；重要的是要在家庭背景下对婴儿进行评估。初级保健提供者必须意识到，这些病症有可能影响婴儿、父母和家庭之间正在发展的关系。在提供者与家庭的关系中，从业者通过教育和支持，可以使父母有能力为其婴儿提供必要的护理。
