Dermatitis Eczema

Let’s face facts- eczema is not nice to look at, not for the person who has it or for other people looking at that person. Many people with the skin disorder feel very self-conscious about their appearance. Sometimes blisters and bubbles can develop due to allergies and inflammation of the skin. This is most commonly seen in the cases of those individuals who suffer with allergic contact eczema (sometimes referred to as allergic contact dermatitis) and irritant contact eczema. Eczema is defined as, “A form of dermatitis, which is a skin irritation, characterized by red, flaky skin, sometimes with cracks or tiny blisters. These blisters may also look like bubbles just below the surface of the skin.” Dryness and itching are the two greatest enemies of this skin condition therefore keeping skin well moisturized at all times are paramount to reducing flare-ups.
