Stress taking toll on skin
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.STRESS at work is causing additional problems for thousands of eczema sufferers, a report claimed yesterday. According to a poll of 1,000 people with the skin disease, the competitive work environment of the 1990s makes the condition worse.
The result can be a loss of confidence, poor self-image and feelings of being stigmatised, which can affect performance at work. This in turn makes the condition worse and the downward spiral continues, claims the report, commissioned by Crookes Healthcare Ltd.
