Eczema flares — help without the waiting room

Eczema flares can often be managed by video when the GP can see the affected areas. Book a dermatology GP consultation for advice and prescription review.

What helps on a video call

Show active patches clearly. Mention steroids already tried, infections (weeping/crusting), and whether sleep is affected. Infected eczema may need urgent in-person care.
