Eczema can be difficult to manage.
A key success factor in managing eczema is protection - protecting the skin from dryness, irritation & scratching. It is not easy to alleviate eczema if the skin is dry, irritated or broken due to itch and scratching. Bacterial infections due to scratching will also worsen eczema, causing difficult-to-treat flare ups.
Wet wrap therapy is one method to quickly reduce the severity of eczema, and is often used in cases of significant eczema flare ups and difficult-to-treat conditions.
