The Most children develop eczema before their first birthday. However, eczema can occur as late as 5 years of age. Studies have shown that eczema usually recovers with increasing age of the child. However, for some children (approximately 20-25%), eczema may persist into adulthood with symptoms coming and going. Eczema is not an allergy (Although it may be related) and is not contagious. The exact cause of eczema is still under study and may be related to an overactive immune action against certain irritants. In addition, among other causes are genetic factors, including inheriting dry skin problems, eczema, asthma, or allergic fever from one or both parents. Other risks are from the living environment (urban areas or cold climates are riskier) and gender (men are more likely). Eczema can be treated by controlling or identifying the triggers. Among other things, eczema treatment tips are to maintain a comfortable temperature and humidity level. Use an air humidifier or air conditioner indoors. So, the ambient humidity level may be maintained with this automatic portable humidifier. Additionally, a DHT11 sensor is built within it to measure atmospheric humidity levels. If it determines that relative humidity is below the necessary threshold, it activates the humidifier, and vice versa. As a result, using this product in some cases can aid eczema patients in managing their symptoms. |
