I have eczema on my right hand and right ankle. I have been to gp 6 weeks ago and got a steroid cream prescribed. It helped for couple of days and then back to how it was. Over the past few days l developed few cracks in the skin and now area around my middle finger is all swollen and hurting as hell. It looks like there is an infection going on. The rest of my hand is covered in yellow spots, licking puss. I have another visit booked in 2 weeks time,but wander if l should try to see someone earlier? Will the infection clear on it's own or will it get worse? I can't use my right hand unless it's covered in plasters and can't bend my middle finger. TIA for any help/ advice!!
