What is eczema?
Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is a long-term skin condition that causes dry, itchy, inflamed patches that come and go.
Causes and risk factors
The skin barrier is fragile and the immune system overreacts. Triggers on holiday include heat, sweating, pool chemicals, salt water, sun lotion, stress and unfamiliar soaps.
How eczema feels
- Intense itching
- Red or darker patches
- Flare-ups in the folds of elbows and knees
- Cracked or weeping skin
