I had a steam burn near my thumb finger. This happened 8 months back. It has not cured properly. sometimes i have an irritation/itching feeling. The new skin has also not formed because of continuos itching. Not able to cook or eat myself. Have attached an image for reference.. And i am also not sure if this is because of a burn or something else

Its a finger tip eczema. I can not write brand names on open forum. Have you applied anything. You have to use any topical steroid of medium potency irregularly. Do not soap or harsh products too much.
