10 Causes of Eczema
Cause #7: Asthma
While the two may appear to be completely unrelated to begin with, there is a very close correlation between asthma and eczema. Studies have shown that around three-quarters of all people that have asthma will also develop eczema to some degree. Likewise, those that start with eczema are quite likely to develop asthma at some point in the future.
This suggests that the body is responding to allergens or other irritants and it is best to be on the lookout for anything that might trigger a reaction. Asthma does have the potential to be very dangerous so it should be treated in full seriousness.
