Eczema is a chronic skin disorder where sufferers have to deal with itching red rashes and dry scaly leathery skin. There may be skin blisters with oozing and crusting. Eczema is generally a symptom of some other underlying condition and sufferers come from across a wide age group starting as young as 1 month to people in their 60s. Eczema is normally more severe for infants and children with the condition improving with age. As you get older you may develop a stronger tolerance to skin sensitivities, which in turn will reduce the extreme bouts of eczema.
Causes
