How this treatment plan should be used natively
The source table is clinically practical: stop the offending exposure, support the barrier, test when the diagnosis is unclear or infection is suspected, and use anti-inflammatory therapy in proportion to severity. AnnaHealth should render that logic directly in the middle panel as a treatment-plan article.
This page should help users understand that successful treatment often starts with removing products or exposures, not just adding another medication.
Key treatment principles
The treatment framework includes comfort measures, reduction of itching and scratching, escalation of topical anti-inflammatory therapy when needed, evaluation for secondary infection, and consideration of patch testing in persistent cases. The source also makes clear that scratching can perpetuate symptoms even after the original trigger is gone.
A native AnnaHealth version should preserve that explanatory logic so the page is useful educationally, not just as a medication list.
Repository role
This page belongs under Treatment Plans and should be paired directly with the native contact dermatitis overview article. Together they give the dermogynecology center both a condition explainer and a treatment explainer inside AnnaHealth.
