Is Eczema a disease or just a condition?
Question:
Answers:
the definition of a "condition" is- A disease or physical ailment. so there is no distinction between the words.
Eczema is a general term encompassing various inflamed skin conditions. One of the most common forms of eczema is atopic dermatitis (or "atopic eczema").
Eczema is not contagious and, like many diseases, currently cannot be cured. However, for most patients the condition may be managed well with treatment and avoidance of triggers
Other Answers:
My son has this on his knees. Usually, from what I understand, it's a immune deficiency thing. That is to say, if you have something like asthma or arthritis or stuff like that, you're more likely to have it. Over the counter stuff wasn't working for my son, so we got a couple prescriptions and they've been working great. So, to answer your question, no, it's not a disease that you can pass on, but it is a condition that is treatable, but not entirely cureable.
It is considered a condition.

It is an Illness!
All western and some eastern medicine will diagnose this as a "condition" because they are trained only to treat the symptoms and not the cause. They bombard you with creams and ointments and just push the problem deeper and deeper into your system. Believe me, because of this nonsense, I've been made to suffer for years with this illness due to their love of money and the secrets that the FDA hides from the public.
I am currently going through a rough time in my life now with it and I am currently trying a cleanse. Although I've sent out a simular question to this site, I'm still convinced that the problem lies within my intestines. I'm just curious to see what other people have to say about it..
Recently they believe that people like us suffer from a parasite that lives within our intestines. We then share our body with it and have to deal with the consiquences.
Keep in mind that this problem is VERY resilient and could take months to cure. Believe me I know! I'm currently unemployed because of it. I was a massage therapist and I have completely lost the use of my hands due to the itching and cracking of my fingers..
Regardless.if you do decide to go with this program..I recommend these folks over any of the others..they are very helpful on the phone with any questions that (YOU WILL HAVE) during your cleanse..The product is called "Threelac".
Much success and good luck to you!
:)
Peace!
