Types of Eczema

Eczema (sometimes referred to as dermatitis) is one of the most common inflammatory skin conditions affecting people of all ages. If you think you might have eczema you’ll experience dry skin that’s uncomfortably itchy, red and inflamed. We will diagnose which type of eczema you have and prescribe you what you need accordingly.

Atopic Eczema

Commonly found on the face and limbs but can affect any area.Atopic Dermatitis or Atopic Eczema is usually present in those who suffer from hay fever, asthma or food allergies.

Contact Dermatitis

Direct contact with an allergen or irritant results in contact dermatitis causing a red, itchy rash in areas of direct allergen contact.

Dyshidrotic or pompholyx

If you find small, itchy blisters on your fingers, feet or palms of your hand you could be experiencing dyshidrotic eczema.

How is eczema diagnosed?

As your experienced dermatologist, we will diagnose eczema by clinical examination taking into consideration; the appearance, texture, location and distribution.

It’s unlikely we’ll have to carry out any further investigations, however, a skin biopsy may be recommended depending on the diagnosis. Skin swabs and blood tests may also be part of the investigation if we need to consider other skin conditions and your immune system health. If an allergy is suspected, patch testing can be performed to identify the allergen.

In some cases, we might need to prescribe antibiotics or steroid tablets to help control and treat eczema flare-ups and spreading.

We might also look into your lifestyle and consider possible aggravates such as food allergies, skin irritants (detergents/soaps) and existing skincare/products to minimise eczema flare-ups and dry skin.
