According to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary, eczema is defined as "an inflammatory condition of the skin characterized by redness, itching and oozing vesicular lesions which become scaly, crusted or hardened".

This basic dictionary definition immediately gives you some idea that eczema is not a pleasant condition to suffer from.
As you will discover as we go through this book, eczema has been around for thousands of years, but sadly, modern medical science is no nearer to curing eczema than were our forefathers.

Like many skin complaints, eczema is one of those things that most people end up treating on a superficial or skin level, primarily because medical science tends to adopt the same attitude.

However, because we are looking for a way of dealing with eczema totally naturally, many of the solutions you will read of in this book adopt a far more holistic approach to getting rid of or at least minimizing the worst effects of eczema.
While there are lots of things that you can do on a topical level (on the surface) that will reduce the severity of eczema using only natural substances, I'­m also going to dig down into some other ways that you can deal with your eczema from the inside, rather than doing so only on an external level.

Before moving on to start looking at various treatments that you can use to deal with your eczema problem, let us look in a little more detail at what the condition is, and who gets it.
