I have a few round red dry patches... What should I do?

Have a few roundish red dry patches and hive like redness in a few areas. Any ideas for treatment options or when to get it looked at?

  1. Hi - thanks for your question. Sounds like it could be a little bit of eczema but to get a definitive answer, you're probably best getting a professional opinion. If your rash is not completely overwhelming and driving you crazy, you could try a little Epaderm ointment which is waxy type moisturiser, but if it is causing you real concern get it looked at by your doctor. Please let us know how you get on?! All the best. Pete (AtopicDermatitis.net) - Team Member
