Nothing feels worse than an itch you can’t scratch and poorly controlled eczema can cause that type of itch which can drive you crazy. The condition affects about one in 12 adults and one in five children and results in dry, itchy, red skin. There are several different types, ranging from mild to severe and including atopic eczema – the most common form – and contact eczema, which may be caused by irritants such as detergents.
