Eczema is a vast subject. The term eczema is loosely used to encompass a number of completely different conditions. The only common factor between these conditions is that they all include the term eczema in their names. Therefore, when someone says they suffer from eczema they can be suffering from any one of numerous different conditions!There are masses of information available about eczema. Despite this however (or maybe because of information overload), a practical understanding of eczema eludes many people. It can be such a vast, daunting and frustrating prospect to try and understand eczema, that most people just give up. Unfortunately, this lack of a practical understanding of eczema frequently leads to unnecessary suffering.
