Book Review: Eczema-Free for Life

Eczema-Free for Life
Adnan Nasir, M.D.

In Eczema-Free for Life, Nasir comments that eczema is not an allergy or a disease but a vulnerability. In this readable and informative book, he explains to the reader exactly what this means. The first section of the book covers diagnosis, management of the condition, physiology and genetics, and the itch-scratch cycle. The next two sections of the book are divided into chapters for adults living with eczema and chapters for parents of children living with eczema. In each of these two sections, Nasir covers daily routines, preventing flare-ups, and dealing with the emotional toll living with eczema can have on patients and their families.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone suffering from eczema or for those who have loved ones suffering from eczema. Nasir clearly describes what eczema is and how to best manage it. He is keenly aware of the impact eczema can have on one's life and offers empathetic suggestions for coping.

The book is available at Amazon.
