Its characteristics are intense spontaneous itching, polymorphic lesions, symmetrical distribution, exudative tendency, chronic course, and easy recurrence. The "immersion sore", "rotating ear sore", "embryo wind", "four-bend wind", "milk sore" recorded in Chinese medicine literature are similar to acute eczema, periauricular eczema, scrotal eczema, atopic dermatitis and infantile eczema in Western medicine.

According to the characteristics of skin damage, it can be divided into acute, subacute and chronic eczema. There is no obvious boundary between the three types, and they can transform into each other.

(1) Acute eczema :

The patient feels intense itching, with multiform skin lesions, erythema, papules, papules or edemas, which are dense and easy to exude, with unclear boundaries, and are surrounded by small papules and papules, often accompanied by erosion and crusting. If secondary infection occurs, pustules or dense crusts may appear. If the treatment is appropriate, the inflammation will be alleviated, and the skin lesions may disappear after 2 to 3 weeks, but it often recurs and may turn into subacute or chronic eczema.

(2) Subacute eczema :

After the acute eczema symptoms subside, there is still severe itching, and the skin damage is mainly papules, scabs and scales, with a small amount of papules and mild erosion. If the treatment is appropriate, it can be cured within a few weeks. If it is not properly treated, it may relapse acutely or turn into chronic eczema.

(3) Chronic eczema :

Chronic eczema often develops due to repeated attacks of acute or subacute eczema. It may also be inconspicuous at first, but due to frequent scratching, friction or other stimulation, it may be chronic eczema at the onset. The skin in the affected area is infiltrated and thickened, with a rough surface, dark red or with pigmentation. The lesions are mostly localized plaques, commonly seen on the hands, feet, calves, elbows, breasts, vulva, anus, etc., with clear edges. The course of the disease is chronic, which can last for months or years, and it can also be acute due to stimulation.
