Could be caused by something controlable- laundry detergent, fabric softner, bath soaps, anything that contacts your skin. With me certain detergents and soaps make it worst. But no matter what it shows up every couple months due to weather and even stress-whenever it does cortizone ointment always works for me. Also see dermatologist!

I have eczema and I use 2% cortizone ointment-works great!! Have had this since 16 now 31 and always used this ointment. Clears it up very quicky.

Our daughter suffered with eczema when she lived in Qatar and at one point they had to "dig out" the infection. Not a pretty site.

I assume by skin asthma that you mean eczema which can occur in place of asthma.

The best way to treat it is to go to a dermatologist.

allergies are quiet hard to diagnose. Skin asthma may be triggered by several factors which would require tests to pinpoint the cause of your allergy. You may want to go to Hamad which can provide the required tests and professional help. The stories or opinions you might get here in QL may not be applicable to you.
