What Is Eczema?

Eczema is a skin condition that involves various combinations of symptoms such as itching, redness, dryness, inflammation, and swelling. It may be chronic or caused by environmental factors.

There are several different types of eczema, including:

• Atopic dermatitis: Chronic redness, dryness, and inflammation.
• Contact dermatitis: Burning, itching, or dryness caused by contact with irritants.
• Dyshidrotic eczema: Small, itchy blisters primarily on the hands and feet.
• Nummular eczema: Itchy, coin-shaped spots thought to be triggered by outside factors.
• Seborrheic dermatitis: Red, flaky, and scaly skin primarily around oil-producing glands.
• Stasis dermatitis: Swelling and itchiness caused by pressure and circulation issues.
