How the VA Rates Eczema & Dermatitis

Skin conditions rate on body coverage percentage or treatment intensity. Flare-ups count: courts require the VA to consider the condition during active outbreaks, so time your exam or photograph flares.

Evidence That Wins This Claim

  • Photograph flare-ups with dates — exams often land on good-skin days.
  • Any oral steroid course counts toward the systemic-therapy weeks.
