Exacerbation: It is not uncommon for eczema to flare-up at times (and conversely , times where the eczema is quiet). When worsening does occur then that is the time to use medications that have been prescribed in a most diligent manner. Also moisturizing and avoid potential irritants on the skin, is critical.
