What is Eczema?

Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a skin condition that causes itchy, irritated and inflamed skin. Eczema is a chronic condition that goes through times of worsening, known as an eczema flare and times of dormancy. There is no permanent cure but there are treatments to control flares as well as preventative measures that can be taken.

About 4 million or 16% of Australians get diagnosed with a form of eczema in their life and even more people with eczema suffer from it without seeking proper diagnosis and treatment.

Symptoms & Types

There are many different types of eczema, each with distinct features. Although they slightly differ, there are some common symptoms for almost all types of eczema. These include intensely itchy skin, dry skin, redness and skin inflammation.

The different types of eczema are:

You may have one or more types of eczema. Each type can have its own specific set of triggers and targeted treatments. Because of this, it is important that a medical professional diagnoses and treats your eczema.

What Causes Eczema?

The leading experts believe eczema to be the result of the immune system overreacting when exposed to irritants. When exposed, the immune system mounts an attack on the healthy area of the skin causing inflammation that results in the classic eczema symptoms. The risk of developing eczema is closely linked to genetics and family history of allergic conditions such as hay fever or asthma.

What irritants cause eczema can vary from person to person but there are some common triggers for eczema that should be avoided such as:

Creating your own list of triggers can be useful when making decisions on products, household environments and foods.

Eczema often flares when the skin barrier is damaged and exposed to the elements. This is why dry skin can be a particularly common cause of a flare.

Diagnosis

To diagnose eczema, a doctor will examine the area and take a medical history. There is no specific test or lab result required for diagnosis. 

Your doctor may decide to conduct a patch test to identify some individual causes of contact dermatitis. This involves placing a series of patches onto your back with small amounts of common triggers. If a patch irritates your skin, your eczema is triggered by that substance.

Eczema Treatment

Eczema treatment varies depending on individual health and needs and should be determined by a doctor.

Prevention

By implementing strategies to prevent flares from occurring eczema can become much more manageable. Consider the following changes:
