Eczema Severity Score
A simplified SCORAD-based self-assessment. Rate your body area affected, skin intensity, itch, and sleep disruption to get your severity level and personalised food trigger guidance. Takes about 3 minutes.
Section A — Body Area
What percentage of your body surface is currently affected by eczema?
EASI, SCORAD, and eczema severity scoring: FAQ
What is the EASI score for eczema?
The Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) is a clinical scoring tool dermatologists use to rate eczema severity from 0 to 72. It combines the percentage of body surface affected across four body regions with the intensity of four signs: redness, papulation/infiltration, excoriation, and lichenification. It is normally scored by a clinician during an in-person exam, not self-administered.
Is this the same as an official EASI or SCORAD score?
No. This tool is a simplified, self-administered assessment inspired by the SCORAD (SCORing Atopic Dermatitis) framework, designed to give you a quick severity estimate and a way to track changes over time. It is not a substitute for an in-person EASI or SCORAD assessment by a dermatologist, and it is not diagnostic.
What's the difference between EASI and SCORAD?
EASI focuses purely on objective clinical signs (redness, thickening, scratching, and swelling/papulation) across four body regions. SCORAD adds patient-reported subjective measures — itch intensity and sleep loss — alongside area and intensity, which is why this self-assessment (itch and sleep included) follows the SCORAD structure more closely than EASI.
How is eczema severity measured in general?
Dermatologists typically use one of a handful of validated instruments — EASI, SCORAD, POEM (Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure), or IGA (Investigator Global Assessment) — that combine affected body area with the intensity of visible signs, and sometimes patient-reported symptoms like itch and sleep disruption. This self-assessment mirrors that general structure in a simplified, at-home form.
