Common Culprits

One of the most frustrating aspects when it comes to identifying and treating an eczema flare up is the fact that there is no universal cause. Atopic dermatitis is one the most frequent forms the causes flare ups, and typically starts after coming into contact with an irritant. Common environmental aggravators include:

• Harsh soaps and detergents

• Wool clothing
• Excessive sweating
• Staphylococcus bacteria (the cause of staph infections)

If you have introduced new lotions, soaps, or detergents to your daily routine and are prone to flare ups, it is advisable introduce new elements slowly to avoid an allergic contact dermatitis bout. Other methods of management include:

• Being mindful of taking too many long showers or baths (can dry out the skin)
• Keeping your skin moisturized, especially during cooler weather
• Applying cool compresses to inflamed areas
• Taking an antihistamine to help reduce swelling and the urge to scratch at dry patches
• Routine application of localized topical treatment designed to eliminate discomfort and reduce swelling.
