Atopic eczema can cause discomfort which can be relieved by a few skincare tips that help to ease the symptoms of atopic eczema. Here are a few tips:
Keeping your skin hydrated forms a barrier between the skin and the environment. It is advised to use a fragrance-free ointment or lotion.
Avoid wearing woolen clothes in direct contact with your skin. Wearing loose-fitting cotton clothes is recommended and tight clothes are to be avoided as cotton is less irritating and lets the skin breathe.
Showers are to hydrate the skin which should be limited to 5-10 minutes with warm water. Moisturization should be done immediately after bathing when the skin is still hydrated as it helps to lock off the moisture.
A Fragrance-free skin care product should be used as products containing fragrances flare up eczema.
Excessive sweat can also trigger and flare up eczema and dry cold weather also contributes to the same.
