The holistic approach to eczema

RCGP eLearning Podcast
About this episode
Eczema is often seen as purely a skin disease, but it is associated with other allergic conditions and can cause significant stress for patients and their families. In this podcast, Dr Toni Hazell and Dr Angelika Razzaque discuss the links between eczema and other allergic illnesses, the management of hand eczema, psychological stress due to eczema and how to manage children with disturbed sleep due to eczema. 

An educational grant was received by Sanofi for the production of this podcast.  Editorial and content decisions were made solely by the RCGP.
