Does a humid location irritate eczema?
Usually humidity helps those suffering from eczema. However, there are other factors that might have triggered it, such as -stress (yes, traveling can cause stress on the body even if you don’t feel it) -whether it was windy where you were staying (it can be humid and windy near the coastline) -whether the heat caused the beginnings of “heat rash”, which can make eczema flare. -whether you had to use sunscreen or anything else on your skin that could have triggered it. -whether you went swimming or engaged in unusual activity that caused a lot of sweat (sweat contains salt, the sweat evaporates, the salt remains on your skin, and can be an irritant) So, back to the cortisone cream alternative treatment and keep well-hydrated. That works for me, too!
