The Impact of Eczema: Beyond Skin Deep
Eczema isn’t merely a skin condition—it’s a complex interplay of genetics, environmental factors, and immune responses. For those living with eczema, the relentless itch, inflamed patches, and discomfort can significantly disrupt life. Sleep disturbances, self-esteem issues, and the constant battle against the urge to scratch are daily challenges faced by individuals affected by eczema.
Children and adults alike endure the impact of eczema. In children, it may manifest as red, itchy patches, often affecting the face and joints. Adults might experience cracked, scaly skin, particularly in elbow and knee creases, and even on the hands. The psychological toll of managing visible symptoms and enduring persistent discomfort can’t be understated.
