What Causes Allergic Eczema?
Even though the exact cause of eczema is yet to be scientifically determined, yet it is largely agreed among dermatologists that overreaction of your body’s immune system causes this condition. In other words, it is an autoimmune disorder caused by your body’s hyper-resistance against outside agents. Eczema has also been found to be common in families having a history of other allergic conditions or asthma. Skin contact with certain allergic substances also causes eczema, including soap or detergents, jewelry or plants and other products.
