Treatment Tips for Eczema and Dermatitis

Eczema and dermatitis are common skin problems. Some people may shrug it off as a simple skin rash, however, they can both lead to more serious problems if left untreated.

In this article we will take a look at these common skin issues. Additionally, we will give you some tips on how to treat them.

Dermatitis

The term "dermatitis" is used to refer to a group of skin problems that cause inflammation. What these different types of inflammation all have in common is that they show an allergic reaction to a specific allergen. The different types of dermatitis include atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, psoriasis and urticaria.

But, in order to know which type of dermatitis you are suffering from you need to have some context, if not you're looking at a simple rash that you know nothing about.

Eczema

Eczema is a type of dermatitis, which may usually be atopic dermatitis in children, and that is commonly characterized by one or several of the following:

• redness

• itching and skin dryness

• skin edema (swelling)

Severe cases of eczema can present:

• bleeding or oozing

• blistering, cracking, crusting, and flaking

Mild forms of eczema will often subside fairly quickly, however, when more severe forms of eczema are left untreated they can lead to breaking of the skin and subsequent infections. This is why it is so important that you deal with eczema promptly.

First thing is identifying the triggers that set off eczema flare-ups. Everyone has a different trigger that can set off their eczema flare-up, however, the most common among these are contact with harsh ingredients and exposure to sunlight, heat, and wind.

Identifying your own triggers and avoiding them is crucial if you want to keep your eczema under control.

If you react negatively to cleaning agents such as detergents and soaps, try using natural cleansers or switching the brand. If scratchy clothing is your trigger then simple make sure that you steer clear of them and buy clothing that is softer or doesn't cause an allergic reaction. Try purchasing clothing made with cottons and linens. Instead of wool, invest in cashmere garments.

If your flare-ups are caused by heat and humidity, try to avoid areas that have both. Stay near shade and, if you enjoy exercising, do so in well ventilated areas.

Sipping cool water during the summer and in hot rooms can also help control your body's core temperature. This will help reduce your chances of having flare-ups.

Changing your skin care routine can also alleviate your eczema and reduce the number of flare-ups. Natural skin care balms can offer a gentler treatment than traditional skin products which often contain fragrances, fillers and chemical ingredients that can aggravate your eczema.

Healing Balms Heal Eczema Flare-Ups

Always look for products that are fragrance and alcohol free. Also, stay away from the following natural extracts: cinnamon, menthol and ylang-ylang. A good dry skin lotion can also alleviate the dry skin that usually accompanies eczema.
