Eczema is a common skin condition that causes dryness, itching, and inflammation, often affecting daily comfort and confidence. With the right treatment plan and expert guidance, symptoms can be managed effectively and long term relief is possible.
Eczema often leads to dry, irritated skin, and regular moisturising is essential. We offer a range of high-quality emollients designed to soothe, hydrate, and protect eczema-prone skin.
At The Family Chemist, we care about providing treatments that are both effective and affordable. That’s why we provide steroid treatments for eczema.
Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a skin condition that causes dry, itchy, inflamed skin and can flare up periodically causing symptoms of itching, scaling, cracking and sometimes thickened skin.Â
Eczema is caused by a combination of genetics, immune system responses, and a weakened skin barrier.
No. Eczema is not contagious and cannot spread through contact.Â
While triggers will vary from one person to the next, the most common triggers of eczema include stress, allergens, harsh perfumed soaps, weather changes, sweating, and certain fabrics such as wool or polyester.Â
Eczema treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, relieving itching, repairing the skin barrier, and preventing future flare ups. This often involves a combination of regular moisturizing to keep the skin hydrated, and topical treatments such as steroid creams or ointments which can reduce inflammation, soreness, and itching.Â
Lifestyle changes, including gentle skincare routines, stress management, and avoiding known triggers like certain fabrics or allergens, also play an important role in control and avoiding flare-ups.
