A member asked:
Can asthma or allergies trigger skin abnormalities?

Atopic dermatitis: Atopic dermatitis (eczema) is frequently seen in patients who also suffer from asthma and allergies. It is not clear if they trigger it, if that they are just linked together genetically.

Very much so: One of the manifestations of allergies can be cutaneous(skin manifestations) like with eczema(atopic dermatitis) or hives(urticaria).
