Can itching eczema cause the skin to harden?

No.: It's your constant scratching causing skin to "harden".

As a permanent eczema sufferer, I've long struggled to find a way to ease the itching despite treatments for dry skin. Even if I constantly moisturise, there is still no way to know when and why an itch or rash will emerge. Have you any suggestions?
