What is Eczema?

The word ‘eczema’ means to boil out (Greek) and the weepy, sometimes rough, red and itchy, rash looks as though something is boiling out of the skin. As skin rashes are so similar, the terms Eczema and Dermatitis are often used interchangeably - it is the cause of the rash that makes them different.

Eczema is usually hereditary though external factors can make it worse.

Dermatitis is caused by factors outside the body, for example contact with Euros or certain detergents. The rash most often occurs on the flexures of the arms, legs, ankles and buttocks

 

Tips and Natural Treatments for Eczema & Dermatitis

As these are generally hot conditions, cooling cream such as Chickweed or Calendula (often called Marigold) are very soothing. I’ve found Chickweed to be better for the hot and dryness of Dermatitis and Calendula better for the weeping, itchy symptoms of Eczema.
