Eczema is a common term used for describing many types of skin inflammation or allergies. Although there are many forms of eczema, the most common one is atopic dermatitis. Eczema can happen to anyone irrespective of their age and the condition is often associated with people who have a family history of this or some other allergic conditions, such as hay fever or asthma. Skin specialists at DermaWorld are well-adept in treating all types of eczema and ensure that complete attention is given to the patient.
Atopic dermatitis is one of the most common types of eczema. There are many terms used to describe specific forms of eczema that have similar symptoms to atopic dermatitis. They are mentioned below:
Atopic dermatitis is a skin disease categorized by itchy, reddened skin and is most commonly prevalent in infants. The condition comes and goes as per the exposures to causative factors. It can be caused due to pollen, contact irritants like soaps, detergents, perfumes, or food allergies. It runs in families and people who have it often have a family history of other allergic conditions such as asthma or hay fever.
Contact eczema is a localized reaction that causes itching, redness, burning sensation when skin comes in contact with an allergy causing substance or with a general irritant such as a cleaning agent, acid, or other chemicals. It is sometimes also referred as allergic contact eczema if the trigger is an allergen, and irritant contact eczema (irritant contact dermatitis) if the trigger is an irritant. People having a history of allergies are at a higher risk for developing contact eczema.
Seborrheic eczema is a form of skin inflammation, the cause of which is unknown. The symptoms include yellowish, oily, and scaly patches of skin over the scalp, face and other parts of the body. This condition tends to run in families and conditions such as abrupt weather changes, oily skin, emotional stress and infrequent shampooing increase the risk of developing seborrheic eczema.
Nummular eczema is characterized by round patches of irritated skin and are usually found on arms, back, buttocks, and lower legs. They can be very itchy, crusted or scaled. This type of eczema is uncommon and mostly happens in elderly men. It is a chronic condition and if one has a family history of dermatitis, asthma, or allergies, then there is an increased risk of developing the condition.
Neurodermatitis is a chronic skin inflammation which begins with localized itching (example – insect bite) and becomes severe when scratched. The condition is more common in women than men and usually affects people between 20-50 years of age.
