Eczema Treatment Care

i wanted to know can i join? if i have hives and eczema? and should i keep studying for the AQFT? or the ASVAB? i mean im really having a hard time thinking about all this i mean i really want to join but i don’t wanna study if there gonna tell me no because i have hives and eczema
i need some help on this please im like really depressed on this topic.

I am trying to join the Coast Guard. I am trying to process in Nagshead, North Carolina. The problem is I have Allergic Contact Dermatitis (slang term is eczema, though its not the same as atopic dermatitis). I did not tell my recruiter cause I know they dont grant waivers.
I read they give the smallpox vaccine at boot camp..is that true? the vaccine and eczema can cause bad side effects i heard. if i dont admit to my recruiter but then tell them right before the shot that i have eczema will i get kicked out? if i get the shot will i be ok?
Any advice would be cool and id be grateful.

Can you still be in the military with atopic dermatitis or eczema? I’m sure you have to be vaccinated, with all kinds of shots, but with atopic dermatitis or eczema? Could I still join? I know the smallpox vaccine could affect it. What are the bad/good outcomes?

Depends on the severity, and whether or not you need medication for it. In most cases, no, its a PDQ, though. Can’t have a flare up in the middle of the field with nothing available to treat it with.
