	What is Eczema?
		Eczema is sometimes referred to as "the itch that rashes," since the itch, when scratched, results in the appearance of the rash.
		In children and adults, eczema typically occurs on the face, neck, and the insides of the elbows, knees, and ankles.
		Because eczema is usually dry and itchy, the most common treatment is the application of lotions or creams to keep the skin as moist as possible.

		Eczema is often triggered by allergens such as dust mites, pollen, pet dander and in some cases, foods.
		Many children with eczema will go on to develop nasal allergies and asthma, so it is important to identify triggers and watch for the development of other symptoms, such as wheezing or persistent cough.
		Eczema can be controlled by staying away from scratchy materials like wool, as well as bathing with perfume-free soaps followed by an application of a good moisturizer.
