Brief Answer:
Eczematous dermatitis

Detailed Answer:
Thank you.

I have viewed the Image. You seem to have eczmatous dermatitis.
Tenovate cream alone, 2x daily for 2-4 weeks would be fine.
In addition you may take a tablet of cetrizine 10mg once daily for symptomatic relief from itching.

Is it totallycurable or it comes back

Answered by Dr. Dr. Kakkar (22 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
It is curable

Detailed Answer:
Hi.

It is curable if you continue with the treatment till your doctor decides to stop it on follow up visits. A lot of patients relapse because they stop treatment on their own after partial improvement so the condition relapses shortly after discontinuing treatment.
