What is Eczema?
Also known as a topic dermatitis, Eczema is not a single
disease but a term used to describe a group of skin conditions
that lead to itchy, inflamed, and red skin. It’s a common
complaint, but eczema is also a manageable condition that
can improve under the care of a skilled dermatologist.
Atopic dermatitis is the most common form of eczema.
Additional types include:
• Contact dermatitis
• Nummular eczema
• Seborrheic dermatitis
• Stasis dermatitis
• Dyshidrotic eczema
How do you know if you have Eczema?
Eczema has a particular set of symptoms, so our
Eczema Specialist in Lansing and Mt. Pleasant can easily
diagnose by examining your skin and discussing your
medical history.
If you have the following, they might be signs of eczema:
• Severely dry skin
• Cracked, thick, or scaly skin
• Red or brownish-gray patches
• Severe Itching especially at night
• Sensitive or raw skin may be from scratching
What Causes Eczema?
Our Eczema Specialist, Dr, Saif Fatteh suggests that one
of the most powerful steps you can take to manage your
eczema is to identify your triggers and take care to avoid
them whenever possible. Everyone has a unique
experience with eczema, but some common triggers
include:
• Harsh soaps, shampoos, detergents, or disinfectants
• Very hot or cold weather, high or low humidity
• Stress
• Hormonal fluctuations in females, especially during
pregnancy or menstruation
• Dust mites, pet dander, mold, dandruff, or pollen
• Certain foods like dairy, nuts, seeds, soy, wheat, or
eggs
• Certain bacteria, viruses, and fungi
Learning to recognize the things that cause your
eczema to flare up takes time and patience. It includes
at length discussion with your Eczema Dermatologist,
formulation treatment plans, and counseling.
