Eczema is one of the varieties of dermatitis. If we break down the word dermatitis it would mean inflammation of the skin, as ‘derma’ means skin and ‘titis’, is inflammation. Eczema causes, rough, dry, red, and itchy skin. It can be triggered by many causes like asthma and allergies to certain things or food. Eczema occurs when the skin barrier gets damaged and becomes extremely sensitive to external factors.
