I came down with eczema my first year at university - probably stress
related. However, health services said it was probably poison ivy
and advised me to treat it as such, which didn't help much.

I still get a few breakouts, so to speak, each year, usually in the
winter. I think I'll try tea tree oil on it if it returns - it's so
good for various skin aliments.

: Eczema an itchy rash with small reddish or clear blisters. Causes
: vary from individual to individual - for some people, it's food
: allergies, or allergies to detergents. For me, stress, caffeine,
: alcohol, lack of sleep, lack of exercise, and dry, cold weather all
: make it worse.
