Eczema

Eczema is one of the most manageable chronic skin conditions when you have the right care team and an effective treatment plan.

AAD - eczema- Banner copy

What Is Eczema?

Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis or atopic eczema, is a chronic skin condition that causes the skin to become dry, itchy, and inflamed. It affects people of all ages but is especially common in children, many of whom experience their first flare during infancy or early childhood.

Eczema tends to come and go. Some patients experience long periods of clear skin interspersed with occasional flares; others manage symptoms on a more ongoing basis. Severity can range from mild dryness and irritation to more significant cracking and discomfort. Either way, the condition is very treatable, and most patients find meaningful, lasting relief with the right plan in place.

Eczema most often appears on the hands, wrists, inner elbows, knees, ankles, neck, and upper chest. In children, the cheeks and scalp are common sites as well. If you or your child are dealing with persistent skin irritation, our team is here to help you understand what's happening and what to do about it.

Causes
Genetics
A family history of eczema, asthma, or hay fever increases your risk.
Immune Dysfunction
An overactive immune response can trigger skin inflammation.
Environmental Irritants
Harsh soaps, detergents, and fragrances are common culprits.
Weather Changes
Cold, dry air can disrupt the skin barrier and provoke flares.
Bacterial Imbalance
Disruptions to the skin's natural microbiome may contribute.
Symptoms
Dry, Itchy Skin
Itching often intensifies at night and with heat.
Inflamed Patches
Skin may appear red, brownish-gray, or swollen.
Thickened or Scaly Skin
Affected areas can become rough and leathery over time.
Cracked Skin
Severe cases may develop painful cracks that release fluid.
Raised Bumps
Small bumps may crust over and leak clear fluid when scratched.

Also, all of the medical technicians and doctors were friendly, knowledgeable and very thorough in explaining all of the medical information.

My family and I have been seeing Dr. Kang for over 15 years at AA Dermatology. It's a little tougher to get in quickly to see him as he's usually booked at least 3 weeks out, but he's worth the wait if it's not urgent. The office staff is pleasant but I wait at least 10 minutes on hold every time calling the office before I am able to speak with someone. Overall, it's a great office experience and we will continue to see Dr. Kang.

I had such a great experience here from the moment I walked in the door. The women at the front desk were kind and welcoming and the check-in experience was easy. Then Ismeta came to bring me back to the room right away and I cannot properly express how warm her presence was. She was so deeply kind and caring and hospitable that it almost felt, not like a sterile doctor appointment, but like sharing a cup of tea with a trusted friend. And then Allie joined and she was also wonderful - knowledgeable and careful and patient. I left here feeling confident in my medical care and honestly just peaceful about the day moving forward.

I was in a lot of pain when I went to Carolina skin care physicians that seemed me took time out to listen to my situation and made a diagnosis that an injection at that time would be best for me.

My teenager has been experiencing some treatment-resistant acne, for which her pediatrician referred her to dermatology after exhausting the usual suspects of medication combos. My kiddo has been to a couple of previous (male) providers who just didn't make her feel comfortable, or like she was part of the treatment plan being discussed. We ended up seeing Semhar Mekonen, APRN, with Academic Alliance in Dermatology in Countryside, and couldn't be happier! She was very kind and understanding, and we really felt like we had a tx plan in place moving forward. My kiddo is also 17 and able to go to her checkups solo if needed.

I have been a patient here for maybe 3 or 4yrs now on and off and when I say im so happy they got rid of Julia it was for the best. I saw her and my daughter saw her so many times she would send me to so many other specialist because she said she didnt know what else to do she provided so many scripts for topical creams n steroids n shampoo nothing was working. I got so bad I gave up on life I had to see a rheumatoid arthritis doctor they wasnt helpful either until one day I got a call from the office that there was a new provider and shes heaven sent. Aditi Mas and her nurse Kylee has definitely poured life back into me. My skin is clearing up im able to move around in minimum pain and stiffness dr.Aditi saw me heard me and cared for me right away it was a way no other dermatologist or provider has ever heard or saw me in 5yrs and ive seen several whos done nothing. Insurance was being difficult but she said nope we gonna fight that and she still took care of me got me a sample of tremfya and she got me approved for more treatments.

I had a wonderful experience as a new patient here. I called after having severe flare ups with my chronic skin condition, HS, and was able to be seen by a dermatologist the next day! Everyone from the front desk staff to the assistants were warm and pleasant to speak with. Lina Weber was absolutely amazing. I was very nervous after having to have an abscess drained but she was patient and explained every step of the process to me as well as gave me several recommendations for daily products and long term treatment. I look forward to visiting this office again during my next visit!

I have been to several dermatologist that just wasted my time. But they sure charged. Then I found Dr. Miller and my world turned around. Dr. Miller took my case of blisters just come up on my body any and everywhere. No Dr. military or civilian could treat me without coming up with O results. Then I found Dr. Miller at Carolina Skin Care. I had to drive aways but Dr. Miller was the one that cares about her patient's. She took biopsies from my blister and started out to find out what I had. Dr. Miller never gave up. Even working on weekends searching & testing until she came up with a diagnosis . I just figured this was something from the war ( my team was hit with mustard gas) Dr.. Miller stayed at it. After different antibiotics she hit the jackpot. It has been several months and I'm still blister fee. Dr. Miller I'm sure makes the top dollar. She should she really takes on a personal determination to help her patient's. For me she is the most knowledgeable dermatologist that is out there. Dr. Miller you are a saint. I wouldn't go to ANY dermatologist just to Dr. Miller.

Excellent practice. I arrived a few minutes early for my appointment and was greeted by helpful and curtious staff. There was virtually no wait after my new patient paperwork was completed. I was taken directly to a visit room and the nurse efficiently took my information. A few minutes later the doctor arrived for the exam. All of my concerns were addressed. The entire process took less than 30 minutes. I highly recommend Anne Arundel Dermatology.

Always listen to my concerns and take whatever amount of time is necessary. They do not rush through the appointment, making me feel "like I don't matter." When it comes down to it, going to this doctor's office is a pleasant experience!

It took no time at all to book my appointment and I was able to be seen the following week... The time in the waiting room was less than 15min- once the medical assistant was done with me, the ARNP Kirstie Dicherrry was in the exam room within a few minutes... She asked my concerns, following up with an extremely thorough exam from scalp to feet... She explained about the spots I was there for and what she thought was concerning, froze a spot on my nose and sent 3 questionable moles for biopsy... Quick, efficient and detailed... I've already recommended her to family and friends- definitely 5 stars!!!

ADDRESSING TOP ECZEMA CONCERNS

Your Eczema Questions, Answered

Not currently, but eczema is very manageable. With a consistent treatment plan and the right skincare habits, most patients experience fewer flares and significantly better day-to-day comfort.

Treatment depends on your symptoms and their severity. Options range from daily moisturizers and topical corticosteroids to prescription non-steroidal creams, antihistamines, and, for more persistent cases, biologic medications.

Keeping skin well-moisturized, avoiding known triggers, using antihistamines at night, and applying cool compresses during flares can all help. Your dermatologist can recommend a routine tailored to your specific situation.

Signs of infection include increased redness, warmth, swelling, and oozing or crusting with a yellow or honey-colored appearance. If you notice these symptoms, contact your provider promptly.

Cold, dry air strips moisture from the skin and disrupts the skin barrier, increasing the likelihood of flares. Switching to a thicker fragrance-free moisturizer, using a humidifier, and avoiding hot showers can all help during colder months.

For some patients, particularly children, certain foods may trigger flares. An elimination approach, guided by your dermatologist or an allergist, can help identify whether diet is a contributing factor for you.

Many children see their eczema improve significantly as they get older, and some do grow out of it entirely. Eczema can return in adulthood, so learning to manage it well during childhood is always worthwhile.

Fragrances, dyes, alcohol-based products (including many hand sanitizers and aerosol sprays), and harsh soaps are common aggravators. Look for products labeled fragrance-free and formulated for sensitive skin, including your laundry detergent.

Yes. Eczema, asthma, and hay fever often occur together in what is sometimes called the atopic triad. If your eczema is connected to significant allergy symptoms, a referral to an allergist may be part of your care plan.

In most cases, a physical skin exam is all that is needed. If an allergic trigger is suspected, your provider may recommend additional testing.
