Experts believe several factors may combine to cause eczema, including immune system reactions, genetics, environment, and stress.
Although eczema symptoms can vary by type, some common symptoms include:
Some types of eczema have specific unique characteristics, like the distinct coin-shaped rash of nummular eczema.
The Institute of Dermatology & Oculoplastic Surgery team can expertly evaluate your skin, discuss your symptoms, and perform biopsies or other tests to determine what type of eczema you have.
Eczema can be uncomfortable because it’s hard to resist the urge to itch. But scratching only compounds the problem, which is why many people with eczema experience oozing rashes and complications like infections.
The Institute of Dermatology & Oculoplastic Surgery team creates an eczema treatment plan to help you feel better. Although treatment can vary from one type of eczema to another, some common strategies include other systemic or topical medications that modulate inflammation in the body. Topical medicines such as corticosteroid creams, oral corticosteroids, and light therapy.
The team may also recommend home eczema management strategies like cool compresses, gentle skin cleansers, fragrance-free moisturizers, and cool baths with colloidal oatmeal.
Avoiding your eczema triggers is also vital, and the team can help you identify your specific triggers and prevent eczema flare-ups in the future.
