Although it is not always possible to prevent dyshidrotic eczema, there are measures you can take to reduce the risk of relapses. Here are some tips:
Identify triggers: keep a log of potential triggers, such as exposure to metals, new skin care products or time changes.
Hydrate regularly: a powerful, fragrance-free moisturizing cream can keep the skin hydrated and reduce the risk of flare-ups.
Use protective equipment: Wear gloves when handling irritants such as detergents or aggressive chemicals.
Managing stress: meditation, yoga, and deep breathing can help reduce stress, a common trigger of eczema.
Avoid smoking: Smoking and second-hand smoke are both related to eczema flare-ups. Reducing exposure can improve the health of your skin.
Working with a healthcare professional can help you develop a prevention plan tailored to your specific needs.
