Nicole Kidman and Eczema

Nicole Mary Kidman (b. 1967) is an Australian actress active in the movie industry since 1986.

More recently (2005), she was shown to have hands with a reddish chapped appearance.

  • Occasionally the hands are seen as fissured and scaly. Lesions are not seen elsewhere such as the arms
  • These changes are compatible with eczema:
    • it could be irritant or allergic contact dermatitis (Click HERE to read more about the condition)
    • it could be endogenous eczema and it is impossible to say here if there is any atopy (To read more about atopic dermatitis and eczema, click HERE)
