Have made a Dr appointment for tomorrow. I've got these weird things which came up on my arms in a few spots in the past couple of weeks. Thought they were ringworm or similar fungal thing, was treating them with OTC topical cream. Was wondering how TF I got it. But the cream didn't work and they've flared up hugely as a result of my treatment ๐Ÿ˜ณโ˜น๏ธ The same thing happened with my feet a couple of years ago; I thought it was tinea, treated it accordingly and the whole situation got instantly massively worse and it turned out to be eczema.

His lordship's had a massive eczema flare as well and he's usually not prone. Must be something in the air

Ikr I've never had eczema until the foot thing, and then not at all since.

He's prone to psoriasis sometimes, but this is definitely eczema (my sister is allergic to bloody everything and has been her entire life, i'm welllllllllll acquainted with that shit). I suspect it may be because he's living in ducted heating for the first time in 16 years.
