Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder with rising prevalence worldwide. Its pathogenesis involves a complex interplay between genetic predisposition, skin barrier dysfunction, and immune dysregulation. Environmental exposures, including allergens and pollutants, are well-recognized triggers of disease activity. Increasing attention is now being directed toward the role of climate, which may critically modulate AD onset and severity. This review examines climate-related stressors and their impact on AD, with a particular focus on extreme weather events, and outlines strategies for personalized management tailored to local climatic conditions.
