: Can eczema be asthma related? Symptoms in the past have been spots of red itchy skin which have been kept at bay with creams. Now the spots have gone and the fingers are terribly dried out and keep splitting - a cream was prescribed but does little for the fingers. Any suggestions? As well as being very sore, rough and painful the splits leave the fingers open to all kinds of infections.
