Eczema & Atopic Dermatitis
Eczema flare-ups aren’t just irritating, they can be very sore, with inflammation causing cracked, dry skin that feels raw and painful. Flare-ups aren’t always so bad, but if yours are getting particularly bad then a prescription treatment may be just the thing you need to help your poor skin recover from the inflammation.
Also known as atopic dermatitis, eczema often appears on your hands, feet, knees, and elbows, and although your skin won’t be dry all the time, this chronic condition means that coming into contact with an irritant, such as harsh soap or allergens like pet hair, can lead to a nasty flare-up of your symptoms.
