Eczema

There are many types of eczema, which manifest as red spots, bumps, blisters, flaking, and/or local swelling. These symptoms are not contagious. While the visible rash is a sign of eczema, the accompanying itching can be severe and is often invisible. Additionally, there’s a psychological aspect to the condition, as people may feel insecure or ashamed of their affected skin. Eczema treatments, such as eczema creams, aim to reduce both the physical symptoms and provide relief for any emotional distress. 

What is eczema?

Eczema is a chronic, non-contagious skin condition that results from an inflammatory reaction. This leads to red flaky spots, bumps, swelling, fissures, or crusts. In some cases, the skin may become wet. Eczema is often accompanied by intense itching and is generally treated with eczema creams.
