Turns out that flies put us in the same category as feces and rotting flesh.
Medical professionals sometimes refer to eczema as the itch that rashes.. Usually, the first symptom of eczema is intense itching. The rash appears later and is red and has bumps of different sizes. The rash itches and may burn, especially in thin skin like the eyelids. If it is scratched, it may ooze and become crusty. In adults, chronic rubbing produces thickened plaques of skin.
Classification of the underlying diseases has been haphazard and unsystematic, with many synonyms used to describe the same condition. A type of eczema may be described by location (e.g. hand eczema), by specific appearance (eczema craquele or discoid), or by possible cause (varicose eczema).
