Eczema Treatment: Avoiding Triggers - Stress
An important aspect of eczema treatment is understanding what triggers your eczema. Stress is a known ans powerful trigger for eczema. Sometimes, it's hard to stay relaxed, especially when your eczema flares-up. Yet research is now showing that keeping a calm head and good mental outlook may be one of the best ways to help keep eczema in check. Emotional stress is a well-known trigger of eczema flare-ups. Patients can have difficulties with anxiety, anger and hostility caused by having eczema. This only adds to the problem. Learning to reduce stress may lessen the frequency and, hopefully, the intensity of the flare-ups.
Meditation, relaxation techniques and stress management can help.
You may also find that you feel more in control if you keep a diary or other record of flare-ups.
