"Eczema is a condition that causes skin to become itchy, red, dry and cracked"
A Distressing Skin Disorder
Eczema is a distressing condition that causes the skin to become itchy, red, dry and cracked. It afflicts children and adults alike. Multiple theories exist about the cause of the disorder, but none have been proven conclusively. It can flare at any time without any obvious causes; however, it can often be successfully treated.
