Expected DurationDepending on the type of eczema, symptoms may go away after a week or two, or persist for years. For example, contact dermatitis caused by poison ivy usually lasts about two or three weeks, while atopic dermatitis that begin in childhood can persist into adulthood. Stasis dermatitis related to varicose veins can last for many years.
