The exact causes of eczema are not fully understood by Doctors yet. Abnormal function of the immune system is believed to be a likely factor. Eczema is commonly observed to be common among families, if one or both parents have it then it appears more likely their children will also have it. It might even be environmental but there is so much in our environments that is beyond our immediate control so it's best to consider the other potential causes or triggers first.
There seems to be a lot of disagreement about whether or not food allergies can cause eczema. Some suggest that gluten intolerance, dairy allergies, or even some food additives could be among the many causes of eczema. Though many seem to disagree with this theory most agree at least that these foods may at least be triggers for eczema if not actually causes. With so much disagreement about the root causes of eczema it can be hard to figure out what's causing your eczema.
There are many things that are considered to be triggers of eczema, not necessarily things that are believed to cause eczema, but these things may trigger flare ups in those who have it. Common triggers are believed to be detergents, soaps, cosmetics, other skin irritants, foods, sweat, and even stress.
It's unlikely you'll be able to determine the cause of your eczema, but you may be able to identify the things most likely to trigger your flare-ups.
Hot showers or baths Stress or Anxiety Sweat Dry air Cloth fabrics such as wool Detergents or soaps House dust mites Pollen Pet fur Hard water Foods like Milk, Eggs, Nuts, Soya, and Wheat
Pay attention to your flare-ups and you might identify some of the triggers for your eczema. If you notice possible triggers eliminate them from your routines for some time and see if it helps your eczema.
