Understanding Eczema — Symptoms, Types, and Causes

What is eczema?

Eczema is an umbrella term for chronic inflammatory skin conditions that cause red, itchy, and dry patches on the skin. While it can appear at any age, it often starts in childhood and is commonly linked to other allergic conditions, such as food allergies, asthma, and nasal allergies.

Types of eczema we treat:

  • Atopic Dermatitis (AD): The most common form, often linked to genetic and environmental factors.
  • Allergic Contact Dermatitis (ACD): Triggered by substances like chemicals, metals, or dyes; diagnosed through patch testing.
  • Dyshidrotic Eczema: Causes small, itchy blisters on the hands and feet.
  • Nummular Eczema: Circular, itchy patches of skin.

Our allergists are uniquely trained to treat eczema and its associated allergic conditions, ensuring a comprehensive approach to your care.

Expert Care for Long-Term Skin Health

Am I a candidate for eczema treatment?

If you’re struggling with persistent itching, redness, or rashes that interfere with your daily life, it may be time to seek professional eczema treatment. You could benefit from expert care if you experience frequent or severe flares that don’t respond to over-the-counter remedies, or if you’re frustrated with topical steroids that provide only temporary relief or cause unwanted side effects. Additionally, if you suspect allergens or irritants are triggering your symptoms, allergy testing can help identify and address the root causes of your condition. For those seeking long-term solutions, advanced therapies like Dupixent or JAK inhibitors offer promising results and lasting relief.
