Top Eczema Triggers To Avoid

Stress

Stress and anxiety affect immune response and are a proven association with an increase in eczema symptoms. Try to reduce stress whenever possible by using meditation, yoga, or mindfulness techniques. Try to simplify daily routines and schedules as eczema itself can be a cause of stress because it interferes with sleep and causes daily frustration and embarrassment for patients. Patients who work with their doctor to pinpoint the factors which trigger their eczema feel like they have more control over their condition and can find relief from stress.
