About Skin inflammation.

Skin inflammation is a localized or widespread immune-mediated response occurring within the integumentary system, affecting cutaneous tissues across pediatric and adult populations.

It develops when innate or adaptive immune pathways are activated by external triggers, such as pathogens, allergens, and mechanical trauma, or by intrinsic dysregulation seen in dermatoses like eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis.

Pathophysiologically, the process involves barrier disruption, keratinocyte activation, release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and the infiltration of leukocytes such as T cells, neutrophils, and mast cells into epidermal and dermal layers.

Clinically, it manifests through cardinal signs of inflammation, including erythema, edema, localized warmth, pruritus, pain, and secondary epidermal changes such as scaling, blistering, or lichenification.
