A nurse is reinforcing teaching with the parents of a preschooler who has atopic dermatitis. Which of the following information should the nurse include?

A. Atopic dermatitis (eczema) is not caused by bacteria, so antibiotics are generally not indicated unless there is a secondary bacterial infection. Routine antibiotic use is not part of standard eczema management. B. Antihistamines can be used to relieve itching and improve sleep in children with atopic dermatitis, especially during flare-ups. This is part of symptom management and helps prevent scratching, which can worsen the condition or lead to infection. C. Liquid nitrogen (cryotherapy) is used for wart removal or certain skin lesions, not for atopic dermatitis. Eczema management focuses on skin hydration, avoiding triggers, and controlling inflammation, not lesion removal with cryotherapy. D. Warm compresses can irritate sensitive skin and worsen itching or inflammation. Cool, wet compresses are recommended for soothing acute flare-ups of atopic dermatitis.
