Neurodermatitis Treatment and Info
Written by Megan Kinder, with some help from SkinCarePhysicians.com.
Imagine an itch so intense that no amount of scratching brings relief and you have some idea of what it feels like to have neurodermatitis. This common eczema develops when nerve endings in the skin become irritated, triggering a severe itch-scratch-itch cycle. Common causes of nerve irritation include an insect bite and emotional stress. -
Occupational Dermatitis: Caused In The Workplace
Written by Megan Kinder, Dermatitis Information editor. Information sources included SkinCarePhysicians.com as well as in-person interviews.
Occupational dermatitis is not one specific type of eczema. It is any type of eczema caused by a person’s workplace. This distinct classification came about because occupational dermatitis has unique causes and a large number of people develop eczema on the job. -
Hand Dermatitis (Eczema)
http://www.skincarephysicians.com/eczemanet/hand_dermatitis.html
Hand dermatitis is not one specific type of eczema as is atopic dermatitis or seborrheic dermatitis. Any type of eczema that develops on the hands can be classified as “hand dermatitis.” Why this special classification? Hand dermatitis often has unique causes — frequently job-related — and can require special treatment considerations. -
Contact Dermatitis
http://www.skincarephysicians.com/eczemanet/contact_dermatitis.html
Contact with everyday objects — from shampoo and jewelry to food and water — causes this very common type of eczema. When the contact leads to irritated skin, the eczema is called irritant contact dermatitis. If an allergic reaction develops on the skin after exposure, the eczema is called allergic contact dermatitis. -
The Cause of Eczema: What You Weren't Told
Cork MJ. The importance of skin barrier function. Journal of Dermatological Treatment (1997) 8;S7-S13
No one really knows what causes eczema. However, we do know that people with eczema have skin that is different. Normal skin pretty much takes care of itself, never really causing us too much trouble. It's the largest organ of your body, flexible, relatively waterproof, keeps you warm or cool by regulating body temperature, and protects you from tiny organisms and infections. -
How do you get Eczema?
Gathered from medical journals, credible websites, and encyclopedias.
Some common triggers are food, environmental factors, man made things or personal things. Some foods which tend to trigger eczema like eggs, alcohol, nuts, wheat, food additives, etc. Atopic eczema does tend to run in families so the tendency to get eczema, like asthma, is inherited. -
Atopic Eczema
Megan Kinder
There is no single cause of eczema. It probably has a mixture of inherited and environmental causes that act together at different times. You may be born with an increased likelihood of developing eczema, which you inherit from your parents. When you are exposed to environmental factors, such as dust or pollen, this causes eczema to appear.
