Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of Indian Dermatologists Regarding Sensitive Skin Conditions and Their Management With Colloidal Oats Among Indian Adults: A Cross-Sectional Survey
The survey highlights a strong understanding among dermatologists of the importance of early moisturization and skin barrier reinforcement in managing SS. Although prescribers recognized the benefits of colloidal oatmeal-based products, awareness among nonprescribers was limited. Addressing cost barriers and the need for scientific evidence can enhance the use of oatmeal-based products in SS management.
