Greetings. Please see a qualified dermatologist first - get evaluated as to what is the likely cause of your eczema. Use a misoturiser daily -one to 3 or more times a day - especially if you have very dry skin. Dry skin allows eczema to persist and progress. Avoid scratching the lesion. You will need topical TCS based creams as a part of your treatment. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal. Bengaluru.
