How can eczema be treated?

Eczema: Eczema is term that is broadly applied for many inflammatory skin conditions. More commonly, however, it is used as a synonym for atopic dermatitis. Atopic dermatitis treatment is guided by a dermatologist, and may include a skin barrier protection (moisturizers), topical medications, oral medications, and/or ultraviolet therapy. Proper vitamin d supplementation is also essential.

Protect: Avoid things that make you break out, soaps & wetness. Wash your hands only when necessary. Wear gloves when needed. Wear clothes made of cotton. Bathe only with a small amount of mild unscented soap, such as dove. Keep the water temperature cool or warm, not hot. Use the medicine your doctor gave you. Use a plain moisturizer daily. Avoid scratching or rubbing the itchy area. Manage stress.
