What is Eczema?
Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a common skin condition that makes the skin dry, red, and itchy. It’s linked to a weakened skin barrier and an overactive immune response. Eczema can affect people of all ages and often runs in families. It’s not contagious, but it can be uncomfortable and affect sleep or quality of life.
