Is marijuana use related to eczema?

Found this on another forum...

"Eczema is a common, chronic, non-contagious, inflammatory skin condition.

I doubt it is caused or accacerbated by pot smoking.

I would look for other causes first that would aggravate the problem: allergens in soap, changes in food/diet, and increases in stress are often culprits. See a dermatologist or allegerist for advice."

After more research I found this posted by Cathedral on Grasscity

"Eczema - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Eczema is a disease in a form of dermatitis, or inflammation of the epidermis. The term eczema is broadly applied to a range of persistent skin conditions. These include dryness and recurring skin rashes which are characterized by one or more of these symptoms: redness, skin edema (swelling), itching and dryness, crusting, flaking, blistering, cracking, oozing, or bleeding."

Ever since I was a child, I have suffered mild eczema on my arms, legs, and occasionally face. Although I have grown out of it for the most part, I still have some during the summer months.

That was until I started using marijuana daily.

Since then, my eczema has been completely gone. That is to say, no more redness or itchiness. [Smilie] This makes me feel much more confident in wearing shorts and short-sleeved shirts during summer.

Also I would like to say I have tried tons and tons of creams, medicines, and other treatments. They have been mostly unsuccessful.

Anyone else here have eczema or any other skin condition that has been successfully treated by marijuana use? "

Nah man, it's usually a toxin or allergen touching your skin or, like me, got it from my mom through genes. Shit's annoying.
