I absence of being able to see a HCP I thought I'd ask Mumsnet it's a non serious issue.

I'm intrigued as to the patches on my arm. They keep appearing in more or less the same linear pattern.

Assuming it's eczema but it's not itchy

I have very dry skin and am prone to peeling hand which is eczema but this is more scaly

Phone is a bit rubbish close up (despite being iPhone 14 it doesn't not do close ups unlike the 12 which was amazing)

I had something that looked like this a couple of years ago and it was fungal. If you’re prone to eczema it could be that but maybe try daktarin cream, it will take a few weeks to go if it is fungal but the cream will stop it spreading.
