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.
TREATMENT OPTIONS

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.

What an outstanding experience this was. It is always alarming when you hear the word cancer. That strikes terror. This facility is just wonderful. They made me feel comfortable. listened, provided all the information regarding the procedure. My cancer is gone and now the healing begins. My suggestion is preparation is everything. Make sure you have all that you need for the first 24 to 48 hrs. Ask questions, write down your own questions. do exactly as prescribed and you will be great. Dr. Monte, his assistants, the front desk are consummate professionals. The waiting area is clean and inviting along with a coffee station. My word to everyone. WEAR YOUR SUNBLOCK. no tanning beds. and contact them if ever needed.

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 at Maryland Dermatology Institute for many years and have nothing but compliments for the doctors and the medical assistants. I’ve had many visits for routine skin checks/concerns about suspicious moles/ laser procedures. I am prone to basal cell ca. so it's reassuring I can easily schedule appointments. I usually see Dr. Margaret Weiss. I am so grateful for your expertise and caring approach. You are the best. This time I saw Dr. Noell. I was concerned about a spot that I thought might be a changing mole. Dr. Noell was very nice, professional, and reassuring.

I also get treated by him with Botox and chemical peels and is he is the best of the best with that as well, and I have tried at least 5 other establishments for Botox and chemical peels.

As usual, Dr. M is a positive professional. I have had many surgeries here over the years and my face is proof he does an excellent job. Years later, the scars are almost undetectable. The staff is great. I can only fault the slightly uncomfortable chairs and clunky paperwork. However, I hear they are going to online forms, so I won’t be able to complain about that next time. This is the place to trust with your face.

I had such a wonderful experience with Dr. Sabini. She went out of her way to squeeze me in for an appointment, which I truly appreciated. From the moment I saw her, I felt comfortable and well cared for. She was gentle, knowledgeable, efficient, and made everything feel easy. I don’t normally see her at the Suwanee office, but after this visit I was so impressed. I also ran into a problem with a new credit card, and Sam Coad, the site manager, immediately stepped in and saved the day. Her kindness and helpfulness made an already great visit even better. Dr. Sabini and the Suwanee team made me feel genuinely cared for. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a warm, professional, and positive experience. Five stars!

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. Since I received the injections, remove scar. tissue. That was causing me a lot of nerve pain. I feel much better and I am able to finally get good rest again. Thank you all for everything that you did for me and my family. It really means a lot.

I cannot recommend Morgan Cheripko at Katz Dermatology highly enough. After months of struggling with a persistent forehead skin condition and seeing little improvement, I sought a second opinion with Morgan. She carefully evaluated my skin and changed my treatment plan and the difference has been incredible. Over the following months, my forehead improved dramatically. At my most recent follow-up, only a few small spots remained and today my forehead is virtually clear with no active spots. Looking back at the before-and-after photos in my chart, the improvement is remarkable. What I appreciated most was that Morgan was willing to reevaluate my condition instead of simply continuing a treatment that wasn't working. She explained what to expect, answered my questions, and created a treatment plan that ultimately gave me the results I had been hoping for. If you're struggling with a persistent condition or have been told one diagnosis but aren't getting better, I highly recommend seeing Morgan Cheripko. I'm incredibly grateful for the care I received and for helping me get my confidence back.

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.
