Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a chronic condition – and is typically characterized by itching and inflammation. Eczema can be experienced anywhere on the body, and can flare up and subside randomly. Those with a family history of either eczema or other allergies are more likely to develop eczema and it can affect people of any age. In addition, eczema, asthma, and allergies sometimes occur together, in what doctors refer to as the “allergic triad.” Common in babies and children, eczema is also a risk factor for later developing asthma and allergies.
Eczema is not contagious, and flare-ups can be caused by factors such as specific irritants, allergies, climate factors and stress. Although there is no cure for eczema, the condition can be effectively managed. Dr. Barnett can work with you to identify potential triggers for your skin condition, and help incorporate lifestyle changes that can both treat current outbreaks as well as avoid future flare-ups. In addition, there are both oral and topical medications that can be prescribed that can help treat inflammation, as well as light therapy, which can all help manage the condition. There are also injections available to treat both children and adults with moderate-to-severe eczema.
Eczema can be troublesome for many people living with this chronic condition, but with proper diagnosis and treatment, it can be effectively managed.
