Beat Eczema – So, What Really Is Eczema?

The ebook ‘Beat Eczema“ defines Eczema as a progressive yet treatable skin disease that is a form of dermatitis or inflammation of the upper layer of skin. It is also a broad term applied to different types of skin condition. Skin becomes dry and there are frequent skin rashes that have the following symptoms: redness, skin edema, itching and dryness, flaking, crusting, blistering, cracking, oozing or bleeding. Sometimes skin discoloration may appear because of lesions and scarring.

There are different causes of eczema:

* Atopic eczema is a hereditary condition. The victims of atopic eczema are sensitive to allergens.

* In atopy there is an excessive reaction against the immune system producing inflamed,  irritated skin.

* Associated atopic eczema includes asthma and high fever.

* Other types of eczema are caused by irritants like chemicals and detergents as well as nickel and yeast growths.

* Another cause of eczema is problematic blood circulation in the legs or hands.

* Sometimes environmental factors and stress can cause eczema.

All of these types of eczema are dealt with in the book “Beat Eczema“.


Atopic eczemaThis is the common form of the eczema which is closely linked to asthma and high fever. Both children as well as adults can be affected by eczema. It has the common symptom of almost unbearable itchiness . Other symptoms are usually dryness and redness with inflammation. This redness is caused by the consistent scratching which eventually results in splitting of the skin. To decrease the inflammation, treatment includes hydration and steroid treatment.

Allergic contact dermatitis:
Allergy refers to the reaction of your immune system against a substance whenever it comes into contact with the skin. For this particular skin disease, allergic reaction may occur when the skin comes in contact with nickel earrings or any ornament made with nickel such as jeans buttons. Along with that, items such as perfumes and rubber may also cause the reaction. “Beat Eczema” has the cure for this type of eczema and many others.
Irritant contact dermatitis:

This kind of eczema is caused by recurrent contact with everyday substances such as detergents and other chemicals used for daily purpose. These chemicals cause irritation to the skin, usually on the hands of adults. One way to prevent it is to avoid irritants and try to keep your skin moisturized.

Infantile seborrhoeic eczema:

This type generally influences babies under the age of 1 year. The nappy areas or scalps get affected quickly as compared to other parts. Though it looks quite horrible your baby will not be uncomfortable with it. It can be cured in few days by using moisturizing cream and bath oils.

Adult seborrhoeic eczema:

It affects adults between the ages of 20 to 40. It appears like mild dandruff, can spread on face, ears and chest. In this case because of continuous itching the skin becomes inflamed and starts flaking. Controlling this form of eczema requires anti-fungal cream to be used daily.
