To begin with, it is important for you to remember that eczema is basically an umbrella term used for a group of skin conditions, which typically causes the skin to become red, irritated and itchy. It is usually identified by the presence of symptoms like skin oedema, crusting, flaking, blistering, cracking, oozing or bleeding.

Experts indicate that in families where there has been a history of eczema, the present and future generations are more likely to develop the disease. The second most prominent cause of eczema is allergy to specific substances. These usually include the likes of poison ivy, nickel or various solvents.

In addition, individuals who have dry skin are more likely to get eczema, especially when the dryness goes beyond a specific level. Though eczema can occur very often in small babies without any such cause, yet when it occurs in adults, it usually has a concrete logic and cause behind it.
