If you have been suffering from any type of dry skin or irritations or rashes on your skin it is very likely that you are experiencing some type of eczema. Eczema is a broad term used for many skin conditions as well as skin irritations known as dermatitis. While there are many different kinds of skin conditions that fall under the classification of eczema the most common is atopic dermatitis.

What you need to understand is that you are not alone if you are suffering from eczema. It can affect people of all ages despite the fact that it is most commonly found in infants. The good news is in half of the infants who are affected, they will be completely healed by the age of three. The downside is the other half of those cases people have recurring conditions and symptoms throughout their life.

Family history plays a big part in the diagnosis and treatment of this irritating skin condition. Just like many allergic conditions like asthma and hay fever, eczema can be tied to a family history.

Fever blisters, cold sores, call them what you will, the name is not important. What is important is the pain, and embarrassment they can cause. Believe me, I can empathize. My parents were told that I had the herpes simplex 1 virus when I was a little girl. You may already know, that this is not uncommon. I may have drank from a friends’ soda, or been kissed by a relative, that had come in contact with the virus. My cold sores generally lasted two weeks, which is even longer than the average sufferer. Not only that but I got them frequently, this caused much embarrassment for me. For these reasons I tried many a oral herpes treatment throughout my lifetime, with varying results.
