A member asked:
Can you tell me what is the main cause of skin asthma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eczema: You're probably talking about eczema also known as atopic dermatitis. Eczema is caused by allergies to dairy, eggs, nuts, chemicals etc. In infants the most common allergen is from foods such as milk and eggs. Airborne allergens can also cause eczema especially in older people. Sometimes it may not be possible to identify the allergen.
