Eczema is a disease class that involves skin inflammation with associated symptoms.

What Is Eczema?
Eczema is an inflammatory skin condition that affects hundreds of millions of people around the world and that presents with symptoms such as redness, itchiness, and scaly or red skin. Specific types of eczema include dyshidrotic eczema, characterized by blisters on the hands, and nummular eczema which leads to small, circular patches and rashes on the skin. The term eczema is sometimes also used to represent a larger group of skin diseases such as contact dermatitis and atopic dermatitis. When considering what eczema looks like, it depends on the underlying type of eczema as the symptoms can vary widely from person to person.
Eczema Causes
Why do people get eczema? Like many diseases in medicine, the causes of eczema are often unknown. However, there have been some things linked to being a cause for eczema. For one, having a certain genetic makeup can predispose one to getting eczema, regardless of other causes. One's environment - particularly exposure to allergens or chemicals - can increase the likelihood of getting eczema. Anything that causes the integrity of the skin to be diminished or sensitive can contribute to causing eczema. Also, certain foods or other environmental substances can cause the immune system to become overstimulated, increasing the likelihood that one gets eczema. Regardless of the cause of eczema, eczema can occur anywhere on the body, including the hands, face, and other parts of the body.
