Every October, the National Eczema Association (NEA) marks Eczema Awareness Month (EAM), a time to build understanding of eczema and the more than 31 million people in the U.S. who live with it. Eczema is a chronic inflammatory skin condition, and its impact reaches far beyond the skin.
This year's theme, The State of Eczema, builds on our #UnhideEczema movement by looking at eczema from two sides: what it's really like to live with it every day, and where eczema care, treatment, research, and access stand today. Together, they paint a fuller, more honest picture of life with eczema right now.

EAM Awareness Post
Eczema Awareness Month is an opportunity to look beyond awareness and ask a larger question: What is the state of eczema today?
We know more about eczema than ever before, yet important gaps remain in our understanding of its burden, the experiences of people living with the disease and access to effective care.
Throughout October, the National Eczema Association will bring together research, data and lived experience to examine where we are today and where greater attention is still needed.
Because understanding the state of eczema requires understanding the whole picture.

Eczema Myth
Eczema is not contagious. Yet misconceptions about the disease persist.
Closing knowledge gaps is an important part of improving how eczema is understood, discussed and supported, both within healthcare and in the broader public.
During #EczemaAwarenessMonth, the National Eczema Association is working to bring evidence-based information and the realities of living with eczema into greater focus.
Better understanding starts with better information.

October is #EczemaAwarenessMonth.
We’re joining the National Eczema Association to examine The State of Eczema today: what research and data are telling us, what we’re learning from the lived experiences of people with eczema, and where opportunities remain to advance care and outcomes.
Progress starts with understanding the full picture. Throughout October, NEA is bringing together evidence, expertise and patient perspectives to help inform the conversations shaping what comes next for the eczema community.

Living Experience
What we can see on the skin is only one measure of eczema’s impact.
Understanding eczema also means asking about what may be less visible: disrupted sleep, mental and emotional well-being, work and school, relationships, daily routines and the ongoing demands of managing it.
These experiences aren’t secondary to our understanding of eczema. They help define it.
Patient experience can provide critical context for research, clinical care and the development of resources that reflect what people with eczema actually need.
This #EczemaAwarenessMonth, we’re working to make that fuller picture visible.

Eczema Stat
About 1 in 10 people will develop eczema during their lifetime.
That statistic helps illustrate the scale of eczema. It doesn’t tell us the whole story.
For the eczema community, the question isn’t only how many people are affected?
It’s also: How are they affected, where are the gaps and what can we learn from those differences?
This #EczemaAwarenessMonth, we’re looking at the numbers and the experiences behind them to better understand the state of eczema today.

State of AD
Data can tell us how many people are affected by atopic dermatitis. But the more important question is what that data can tell us about where needs remain.
The State of Atopic Dermatitis Report brings together data to examine the burden of AD, differences in care and access, and the experiences shaping outcomes for people living with the disease.
For researchers, healthcare professionals, advocates and policymakers, these findings offer an opportunity to look more closely at where progress is being made and where gaps persist.
This #EczemaAwarenessMonth, we’re using evidence alongside lived experience to build a more complete understanding of the state of eczema today and help inform where we go next.
