## Q&A

**Q: What is eczema and what are its primary causes?**
A: Eczema is an umbrella term for inflammatory skin conditions characterized by barrier dysfunction and itching. Causes involve a combination of genetic factors, immune system over-reactivity, and environmental triggers such as heat, humidity, dust mites, and harsh soaps.

**Q: How does the Malaysian climate impact eczema flare-ups?**
A: Malaysia's high ambient heat and humidity induce excessive sweating, which can irritate damaged skin barriers and trigger intense itching. Consistent cooling, breathable cotton clothing, and non-occlusive, sweat-tolerant barrier moisturisers help minimize tropical climate flare-ups.

**Q: What is the recommended daily skincare routine for eczema-prone skin?**
A: Apply a fragrance-free emollient at least twice daily immediately after bathing to lock in moisture. Replace conventional alkaline soaps with gentle, soap-free cleansers, keep showers lukewarm and under 10 minutes, and avoid vigorous towel rubbing.

**Q: What is the difference between daily emollients and topical steroid creams?**
A: Daily emollients moisturise and protect the skin barrier to prevent flare-ups and should be used continuously. Topical corticosteroid creams reduce active inflammation and itching during acute flare-ups and should only be applied short-term under medical supervision.

**Q: When should someone with eczema consult a healthcare professional?**
A: Seek medical evaluation if skin develops signs of secondary bacterial infection (pus, yellow crusting, severe pain), if itching disrupts sleep, or if symptoms fail to improve with basic emollient care.
