The truth is, managing atopic dermatitis can sometimes seem like a full-time job. Eczema doesn’t just cause physical symptoms like pain and redness, but also emotional ones, including low self-esteem and poor body image. The sooner — and more effectively — you can get eczema under control, the better off you’ll be. To identify whether you need a change of treatment, we’ve assembled these six assessments, which examine how severe your symptoms are; whether your treatment plan is working for you; whether you’re doing everything you can to manage your condition; and how atopic dermatitis is affecting your quality of life, body image, and sleep. You don’t have to settle for a lifetime of uncontrolled eczema. Check in with yourself about how you’re really feeling, then schedule a checkup with your doctor to analyze the results.
