Adult Eczema
I've been having some itchy places in my skin for over a year now..on the back of my neck, my hips, the bottom of my belly, behind my knees. They trigger a strong sensation for scratching and I can't stop scratching until the place gets so red and after a period it gets very dark in color, dry and flaky. And whenever one area soothes, the same symptoms appear on another area of my body. I consulted two dermatologists who prescribed antihistaminic drug and creams Mesone and Locatop but in vain
