How long the the itch from eczema last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends : Itch usually precedes the rash of eczema and continues unless eczema is properly treated with rx topical therapy. If not tx'd it can become infected. Bc eczema is a chronic condition, it tends to recur for many years-depends on environmental allergen exposure and genetics.
