What is it?

Chronic itchy rashes in children refer to long-lasting or repeatedly recurring skin rashes accompanied by persistent itching. These rashes may appear as dry patches, redness, bumps, scaling, or thickened skin and can be caused by conditions such as eczema, allergies, infections, or environmental triggers. Constant itching can disturb sleep, affect daily activities, and increase the risk of skin infections due to scratching.
