Diagnostic Tests
No lab test is needed for eczema. The doctor will make a diagnosis by examining your skin and reviewing your medical history. He/ She will probably use patch testing (method used to determine whether a specific substance causes allergic inflammation of a patient's skin) or other methods to rule out any other skin diseases.

Treatment
Treating eczema usually depends on its severity. It includes avoiding harsh soaps and other irritants such as, itchy fabrics (wool, polyester, spandex) and extreme temperatures (try to avoid getting too hot or too cold). Creams and ointment may help with itching.
