What our customers say
More about eczema
Eczema is a skin condition causing dry, itchy and inflamed skin. It usually comes in flare-ups which can be treated and prevented. Take a look at our resources below for more information.
What types of eczema are there?
There are a few different types of eczema, but atopic eczema is the most common. It can be mild, moderate or severe. No matter how severe your eczema is, there are treatments that can help.
What conditions are linked to eczema?
People who have eczema often also have asthma and allergies such as hay fever. These conditions are all caused by your immune system being sensitive to things in your environment.
How do you know if you have eczema?
If you’re not sure whether you have eczema, your GP can usually diagnose it. If you have a rarer form of eczema or unusual symptoms, you may need to see a dermatologist. These are specialist doctors who treat skin conditions.
Eczema can affect anyone, but it usually begins in childhood.
It is not an infectious disease, so you can’t catch it from anyone else.
There are three main differences between eczema and psoriasis:
- Eczema usually starts when you’re a child while psoriasis symptoms begin to appear in the early years of your adulthood.
- The reason why eczema happens isn’t completely understood. Genetic factors and lifestyle could play a role. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease. This means that your body attacks healthy cells.
- People with eczema usually experience intense itchiness in the affected areas of skin whereas psoriasis causes a milder itch.
