Aczema, commonly known as eczema, is a chronic skin condition characterized by inflamed, itchy, and red patches on the skin. It can occur in different forms, with atopic dermatitis being the most prevalent type. Eczema often results from a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors, and while there is no cure, various treatments can help manage symptoms and flare-ups. Effective management includes moisturizing, avoiding triggers, and using topical medications as needed.
