Can eczema caused by allergies (atopic eczema)

[measqu]

I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue - can eczema caused by allergies (atopic eczema) be passed from one person to another? According to the information I've read, atopic eczema is not contagious and cannot be spread from person to person. However, I'm still not sure if that's completely accurate. Does anyone have any personal experience or knowledge about this? Is there any way it could be passed from one person to another? Any insight or advice would be great.

Atopic eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is an inflammatory skin condition that is often caused by an allergic reaction to certain allergens. Common allergens that can trigger an eczema flare up include dust mites, pet dander, pollen, and certain foods. In some cases, constant contact with irritants such as detergents, soaps, and other chemicals can also cause atopic eczema. Identifying and avoiding these triggers is the best way to manage the condition and prevent flare-ups.
