What is this?

[AlaskaThunderfuckHiiiiiiiii]

I’ve got an itchy patch on my leg and it is driving me potty! It’s been there for a month or so and goes through stages of being itchy and then dry, it looks kind of bumpy if that makes sense? If I put moisturiser on like e45 it does take the itch away, sometimes it’s triggered by heat e.g. in bed at night or in the bath and sometimes it’s itchy for no reason at all!

Bump?

Looks like eczema, you may need a stronger cream.

@buddyelf can you get eczema when you’ve never had it before? I do suffer with hives as well

I think so? It could be uticaria (hives), I would suggest popping to the chemist and seing what they think.

Looks a bit like the contact dermatitis that I get on my hands (and gets worse when I'm hot and can go dry and itchy)

I've been trying to get hydrocortisone cream for mine but my GP surgery seems to think I'd rather listen to hold music than book a simple telephone appointment lately.
