Hi.
As per your case history you are having eczema on fingers.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't scratch the lesion as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply an emollient cream like Enmoist cream twice daily on it.
3. Apply a tacrolimus 0.03 % ointment twice daily on affected skin.
4. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for itching.
5. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral hydroxyzine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
