Eczema and dermatitis in general are conditions that cause inflammation of the skin which typically cause redness, dryness, swelling, itching, and even blistering.

It can be a minor irritant or a major distraction that disrupts sleep and concentration. It is particularly hard on children, keeping them (and their parents) from getting a good night’s sleep. There are many different types and causes.

Treatments include using appropriate moisturising creams and prescription medications which come in both topical and oral forms. These medications are used to help control the inflammation and manage your symptoms.
