Don't Isolate Yourself
Like I said before some people with eczema are lucky enough to have their outbreaks on hidden parts of their body.Such as upper thighs or arm upper arms.You though may have outbreaks on your elbows or or legs. This does not mean you should always wear long sleeve shirts or long pants all the time ,Or hide inside during the summer!Tucking yourself away from the rest of the world will only make dealing with your eczema harder,and will easily lead to depression.You can't let this or anything else stop you from living your life to the fullest.
