They are linked so you may have a hightened chance of getting asthma. Any of these conditions can appear or disappear through out your life. When I was little I had bad eczema which has mostly gone. However i have now developed hayfever and more recently asthma but don’t worry, its really not that much of a problem.

Yeah you have a higher risk of developing asthma because these are all based on allergens. Also if you have both eczema and hay-fever it means you have a weaker immune system than everyone else which makes you prone to sickness. It is very unlikely that you will develop asthma unless your exposed to secondhand smoke, pollution, and if it runs on your family. So if you start feeling short of breath just at a sudden moment get medical attention quick cause asthma can kill Hope that helps

Yes because both are linked to autoimmune disorders. Eczema is not actually a disease. It is the symptom of another disease, usually an allergy. It is sad that most people don’t know this and continue to poison themselves and be miserable. Doctors would rather prescribe you creams to slather all over yourself and they don’t ever work.
The most common culprits that trigger eczema would be gluten and milk. It is likely that you have Celiac Disease which is a gluten intolerance. 1 in 133 people have Celiac Disease and don’t even know it. My son has been gluten free for a month now and his eczema is gone. You can get an allergy blood panel to test for gluten and other things or you could try a gluten free diet for a few weeks. At least look it up and see for yourself. I wish I could inform the world, but I will have to settle for a person by person basis. I hope you figure it out soon. Please don’t just live with it. You could be hurting yourself.

i think that they are all allergen based illnesses, allergens inflate the bronchioles in you lungs and increases the secretion of mucus in asthma and can be triggered by pollun but just because u got hay fever and eczema doesnt mean u got asthma.

Sorry but yes! However, if you don’t already have asthma, then it’s unlikely that you will develop it in the future. Unlikely but not impossible so just be aware of the fact but don’t worry.
Good luck
