10 Causes of Eczema
Cause #3: Climate
Our favorite weather is very much a matter of personal choice. When it is cold and wet it tends to be quite unpleasant to be outside, while it can also be uncomfortable when it is hot and humid. Generally speaking, we tend to prefer a dry climate, within reason, but this can be a problem for people with eczema.
Dry skin is more prone to triggering eczema, meaning that a lot of people with the condition will avoid dryer climates when possible. Heat and humidity are also likely to prompt perspiring which can also be a contributor to eczema. This can lead to some people being selective when it comes to choosing vacations, while some may even find that eczema is a motive behind relocation.
