Eczema is a rather unpleasant skin disease. In addition, most often this ailment is chronic. Eczema is manifested in humans in the form of an allergy. As for the allergens themselves, which cause such an ailment, then in most cases these are drugs or any food product. In addition, irritants can enter the human body not only through the mouth, but also through the skin. For example, eczema is often the result of the use of cleaners or detergents, ointments or cosmetics, and so on. Allergens can be any aerosols or perfumes, as well as plant pollen.

In addition, as a result of a long illness in the future, a reaction of this type will manifest itself not only on the allergen initially causing the disease, but also on substances similar to it and completely unlike it.
