Eczema
Eczema (also known as Atopic Dermatitis) is a chronic skin condition characterized by red, itchy, and scaly patches on the skin. It is most commonly found on the face, elbows, and knees, but can appear anywhere on the body. Eczema is caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and immunological factors and is typically treated with topical corticosteroids, antihistamines, and topical immunomodulators. In severe cases, oral corticosteroids may be prescribed. While there is no cure for eczema, it can be managed with proper treatment and lifestyle changes.
