Having suffered from eczema for 15 years and finally found a way to cure and maintain my skin, I feel qualified to pass on my advice. Remember to consult your doctor when embarking on a new treatment.
Eczema is easily one of the hardest skin conditions to endure and can be extremely distressing which is why it is crucial to find out what is causing it in the first place allowing you to change your lifestyle appropriately. Fortunately, finding out the root cause of eczema is quite simple. Following are a few main causes for eczema to get you started.
Food and non food allergies.
Regardless of when you developed eczema whether from birth or later in life, one of the main causes is often due to substances that you have an allergy to that have been eaten, inhaled or touched. The main food culprits are food additives including all processed foods, wheat, alcohol and highly spiced foods. Non-food culprits are dust/dust mites, ink, tobacco smoke, perfumed products such as make-up or clothes detergents and pollen.
You can determine if you have any allergies by way of a skin prick test performed by your doctor. Or, you can keep a log of what you ate/came into contact with and when your eczema flared. Within around a month you should see a pattern form allowing you to determine what is causing the eczema.
Stress
Emotional stress sometimes manifests itself in the skin known as dyshidrotic eczema. This is characterized by patches of angry red skin that weeps easily and is not necessarily itchy. The only way to avoid this is to incorporate calming activities into your daily life which can take the form of gentle exercise avoiding sweating (as this can irritate the skin), bathing in water containing lavender and getting sufficient sleep.
These are just a few methods for beginning your road to determining the root cause of eczema and keeping your skin clear. There are a few other causes for eczema and extremely effective steps to keep your skin eczema-free permanently.
