    conditions causing skin redness, swelling, and irritation from immune response

    Inflammatory skin disorders are conditions where the skin becomes red, swollen, and irritated due to an overactive immune response. Examples include eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis, which can cause symptoms like itching, redness, and sometimes blistering or scaling. These disorders can be triggered by various factors such as allergens, infections, or even stress, and often require medical treatment to manage symptoms and prevent flare-ups.
