Who this consultation is for
Eczema, often called dermatitis, inflames and irritates the skin. This condition manifests itself with symptoms such as dry skin, intense itching, redness and, in more severe cases, sores.
There are several types of eczema, including atopic, contact, nummular and seborrhoeic. Each type can have different characteristics and require different approaches to treatment.
The main symptoms of eczema include dry, rough skin, constant itching, rashes, redness and swelling. In more serious situations, the condition can lead to the development of sores on the skin.
It is important to emphasise that eczema is not contagious; it is not transmitted from person to person. The approach to treatment involves applying topical creams or ointments to relieve inflammation. In addition, it is crucial to avoid allergens and irritants that could aggravate the condition. In some cases, it may be necessary to resort to prescription medication to control the symptoms.
Without proper treatment, eczema can worsen over time, making management of the condition more challenging. Although it's not possible to completely prevent eczema, you can significantly reduce the symptoms. Keeping your skin well moisturised and avoiding known triggers are effective strategies for minimising the impact of the condition on your daily life.
