A Population-Based Survey of Eczema Prevalence in the United States

A substantial proportion of the US population has symptoms of eczema or eczematous conditions; 31.6 million met the empirical symptom criteria for eczema, and 17.8 million met the empirical criteria for AD. Most cases are not diagnosed by a physician, which indicates that these conditions are undertreated and/or managed with nonprescription remedies.
