What Exactly Is Eczema?
Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, is a condition dealing with inflammation of skin, which can lead to blister-like rashes and swelling when left untreated. Early symptoms of eczema include itching and redness, which then lead to severe pigmentation. There are four major categories of Eczema, and these are sorted based on your primary symptoms. Your dermatologist can help diagnose which of these categories you suffer from:
- Stasis Eczema
- Nummular Eczema
- Dyshidrotic Eczema
- Contact Eczema
But what causes Eczema? The answer to this question varies from individual to individual, and finding the root cause is essential to providing treatment. The potential causes of Eczema are various allergens present in the environment including:
- Bacteria
- Pet dander
- Certain foods
- Dust
- Pollens
Diagnosing the real cause helps the doctors provide more effective treatment. But determining the cause can be tricky. Major tests often use supervised food challenges, which are aimed at discovering whether or not there are any food allergens which aggravate Eczema. Another major type of diagnosis is a test patch used to test a specific allergen. Doctors also use skin prick testing, using a needle to inject a possible allergen into the skin.
