The most common type of eczema is atopic dermatitis. It is most common in babies and children but adults can have it too. As children who have atopic dermatitis grow older, this problem may get better or go away. But sometimes the skin may stay dry and get irritated easily.
Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, can be long lasting with periodic flare ups before it subsides. In many cases, atopic dermatitis is accompanied by allergies and or asthma. There are also several types of eczema which can affect different areas of the body. Some of these types include contact eczema, allergic contact dermatitis, nummular dermatitis, dyshidrotic eczema and several other types. Although eczema is a common skin problem, no cure has been found for it.
