    inflammatory response in a specific skin or tissue area

    Local irritation refers to an inflammatory response that occurs in a specific area of the skin or tissue, often due to exposure to an irritant such as a chemical, allergen, or physical abrasion. Symptoms can include redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort, and it is a common side effect of topical treatments or environmental exposures. For professionals, understanding the cause and extent of local irritation is crucial for diagnosing and recommending appropriate treatments or preventive measures.
