Eczema affects about one in every five people at some time in their lives.

It results from a variety of different causes and has various patterns.

The terms "dermatitis" and "eczema" are often used interchangeably.

Dermatitis can be "acute" or "chronic" or both.

Acute eczema refers to a rapidly evolving red rash, which may be blistered and swollen.

Chronic dermatitis refers to a longstanding irritable area. It is often darker than the surrounding skin, thickened and much scratched.

It is typically triggered by an irritating soap, hot water, a fragrance and even stress.
