IMAGE COPYRIGHT Skin Secrets: The science of eczema
Eczema is a common condition that causes itchy, red and sore skin - but what's really going on under the surface, and what helps?
Join researchers from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Southampton to find out!
You will discover what happens when the skin barrier becomes damaged and how our body's defence system over-reacts and cause eczema. You will also become a Trigger Detective, investigating everyday things that can make eczema worse, from washing hands to petting a cat. Finally, you will learn about medicines that can repair the skin barrier, reduce itching and help people with eczema to live well.
