Do you need to avoid certain foods if you have eczema?
Eczema is considered an allergic disease, and the specific allergens can be difficult to determine as they vary from person to person. Generally, it is related to decreased immunity and may also be linked to genetic factors within the family. Frequently consuming spicy foods, staying up late, or living in a damp and unclean environment can all potentially trigger eczema. Once eczema occurs, it is essential to avoid spicy and irritating foods. Avoid contact with chili peppers, mutton, seafood, and alcohol. Proper treatment should be enforced to prevent it from becoming chronic eczema. During treatment, do not wash with hot water; use warm or cool water instead. Avoid going to public baths or swimming pools, and stay away from places with many plants or animals to reduce inhalation of pollen or dust mites.
