Types of eczema and homeopathy treatment
You’ve probably come across the term eczema, right? If not, then you should know that it is a condition where some patches of the skin become inflamed, cracked, rough, and itchy. Eczema has several types that affect the individual differently. Read on to know about types of eczema and how homeopathy treatment helps.
Types of eczema
There are about seven types of eczema that exist.
-
Atopic dermatitis :
Atopic dermatitis causes long-term skin inflammation. This kind of eczema results in cracked, itchy, swollen, and red skin. Atopic dermatitis is one of the most common types that appear in childhood but slowly goes away during adulthood.
-
Contact dermatitis :
This comes in two types; one is irritant contact dermatitis that occurs when a certain substance or chemical irritates your skin. The second type is allergic contact dermatitis when your immune system reacts to an irritant like metal or latex.
-
Dyshidrotic eczema :
Here, you will notice small blisters that occur on your feet and hands.
-
Hand eczema :
Hand eczema is caused due to chemical irritants that one uses on a daily basis. It is common when you work as a cleaner or hairdresser.
-
Neurodermatitis :
Neurodermatitis causes scaly and thick patches on your skin and it is somewhat similar to atopic dermatitis.
-
Nummular eczema :
Nummular eczema causes coin-shaped or round-shaped spots to occur on your skin which is very itchy.

Stasis dermatitis :
Stasis dermatitis occurs when fluid suddenly leaks out of your weakened veins into your skin that results in itching, redness, and swelling on the affected area on the skin.
