Why Is My Eczema Spreading
Developing wrinkles on arms and hands at 27?
A few months ago I noticed lines running down my forearm. They are vertical and pointing downward and almost appear to be stretch marks but I am very small and have never really had weight fluctuations. Lately, my hands have gotten extremely dry and are developing the same lines along my fingers and palm.
I am concerned as to what this could be and why it's spreading as I'm pregnant. There are NO rashes that would indicate any sort of dermatitis or eczema,,,,only lines like wrinkles.
Any thoughts??
you can try regular oil and cream massage for this problem. As your skin is loosing moisure. Also take steam bath. I think it will help, send me feed back please.
Do you have eczema, and is there a cure?
What is Eczema and is there a cure?
Eczema is a type of dermatitis or inflammation of the skin. It is limited to the epidermis or outer layer of the skin. Eczema is actually a broad term for persistent conditions of the skin. It is generally used to mean skin conditions that make the skin look swollen, red, and itchy.
You can identify if you might have eczema in a lot of ways. You should also know what to do so that you will not be doing anything that might help eczema spread even more. The symptoms mainly include dryness and recurring skin rashes that are usually itchy. The skin rashes may appear swollen or edematous, red, with blisters, cracking, oozing fluids, crusting, flaking, and sometimes even bleeding. Since it is usually itchy, once you scratch it, the blisters usually get worse, and sometimes it spreads and makes the eczema larger.
There are different types of eczemas. These are:
• Atopic eczema- eczema that is triggered through allergies. It is said to be hereditary. The eczema is usually itchy and located in the scalp and neck.
• Contact Dermatitis- triggered when you came in contact with allergens such as poison ivy. Rashes are common.
• Xerotic eczema- is a type of eczema that resulted from extremely dry skin. It is usually experienced during winter and with older people and is otherwise also known as "winter itch". The affected skin usually appears cracked and lined like a river.
• Seborrhoeic dermatitis- is a type of eczema that closely resembles dandruff in which the symptoms are flaking of dry or greasy skin on the scalp, eyebrows, face, and in some cases in the truncal part of the body. It can also affect newborns, causing yellow, dry skin peeling of the scalp called cradle cap.
It is important to watch out for these signs and symptoms so that you will be aware of your condition. It is also very important to know what caused your eczema so that you can prevent eczema from getting worse on your skin. You will also be more knowledgeable and avoid the triggering factors of your eczema.
Recently medical developments have made treating eczema far easier. There are natural treatments for eczema that can help to cure the condition.
