“What is the connection between a topic dermatitis and HRAD?”
My son is 5 months old and has atopic dermatitis. In a recent bout of cold he was given nebulazation due to excess wheezing. The doctors said he has hyper reactive airways and it is common in kids with atopic dermatitis. What is the relation between the two?

Some babies have an exaggerated reaction to things around them. This tendency of the immune system to have an exaggerated response is called atopy. Sometimes it manifests as atopic dermatitis, sometimes as HRAD, others as food allergies, etc., or all of the above sometimes.
