Eczema is a type of a skin inflammation that appears as red, flaky, scaly patches of dry skin. Eczema is characterized by itching, scaling and burning of the skin. It is usually located on the face, elbows, knees, and arms. People with sensitive skin are more prone to eczema. Eczema can be easily mistaken for seriously dry skin, but it is not as easy to get rid of. Persistent dermatitis may require a stronger topical steroid cream that only your physician or dermatologist
can provide.What can make eczema worse? Heavily perfumed soaps, shampoos and moisturizers. Clothing made of synthetic fabrics that don't allow air to pass freely. Some moisturizers with sensitive ingredients can also make eczema worse.
