My skin has got so much worse. Dermatology are trying to get an immunosupressant medication for me they are having problems getting the one they said and might have to look at alternatives and told me to wait a week. I cant. Tonight I just want to scream and shout. My skin burns I'm in so much pain yet another sleepless night. I will attach some photographs could it be an infection? I can't even sit down for long at all because my legs hurt so much. I dont sleep because my skin burns. I'm flared with eczema on my face too. I'm at breaking point the skin pains me so much all around my neck and chest. Any supportive help kind words on here. I'm in so much pain.

That looks so painful. And yes, your leg looks like it’s infected.

When did anyone last examine you ?

If that was me, I’d be wanting it checked out at A&E given the broken and weepy skin.

Oh bless you, that looks so painful! Having suffered for years with severe eczema that used to get infected regularly, the skin on your legs looks just like mine used to. My clothes used to stick to my legs and I'd have to peel them off at the end of the day 😭 I had years of twice weekly hospital visits for bandage changes and even UVB therapy, but nothing really worked properly until i was tested for allergies at 17. Sorry if this is obvious, but have you had allergy testing?
I'm so sorry you're suffering like this, I feel for you, it really is excruciating xx
