What Causes Red Patches On Feet And Arms?
Hello Dr. Rynne. My husband developed some red patches on his lower legs. It started with one and then he got few more. They were itchy. Went to see a dermatologist and she said it was an eczema and prescribed a cream. After using it for 2 days, patches disappeared and then now, he has smaller on his feet and now some on his arms. I will be scheduling an appointment with his dermatologist but can t get in any early. Any suggestions you can make? They don t itch now. Thank you in advance. Ella
