Eczima
Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by red, itchy, and inflamed skin. It is a common condition that can affect people of all ages, but it often begins in childhood and may persist into adulthood. Eczema is not contagious, and its exact cause is not fully understood. However, a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors is believed to contribute to its development. Here are key points about eczema:
Symptoms:
- Itching: Intense itching is a hallmark symptom of eczema, and scratching can exacerbate the condition.
- Redness: The affected skin may appear red or inflamed.
- Dryness: Eczema-prone skin tends to be dry, and the dryness can lead to cracks and scaling.
- Rashes: Rash-like patches may develop, especially in the creases of the elbows, knees, wrists, and neck.
- Blistering: In severe cases, eczema can cause blistering or oozing of clear fluid.
