A few months ago, we asked the doctors here at Bungendore Medical Centre “If you could share one piece of content with your patients, what would it be?”.

Throughout the coming year, we intend to regularly post their responses to this question.

Today, Dr Chaitali, who has a postgraduate degree in dermatology, would like to offer some information about the relationship between Eczema and food allergies.

There is a common misconception that eczema is caused by sensitivities to certain foods. While foods are certainly a trigger and worsen symptoms of eczema in some instances, it is never the cause.

Dr Chaitali would like to share the following link with the Bungendore community so that they can learn more about how to manage eczema. Of course, please feel free to make an appointment with any of our doctors for further help.
