Study links high air pollution exposure to more than double the risk of developing eczema.

A recent study indicates that exposure to air pollution, particularly fine particulate matter (PM2.5), is linked to a higher risk of developing eczema.

Experts advise reducing exposure to pollution to lower the risk of eczema.
