Diagnosis
To diagnose eczema, you need to visit a dermatologist. They need to do a physical exam and ask some questions about the symptoms, affected parts, and a family history of eczema. In some cases, a skin biopsy may be needed. During the procedure, your doctor will numb the skin and get a small sample, which can be analyzed later in the laboratory to diagnose eczema. The dermatologist would ask you to notice and try to find out the possible triggers of eczema. This may help you identify whether dust mites are a possible cause of eczema. [5]
