Eczema Around Ankles And Legs, Green Woozy Looking Area With Bloody Bumps. No Help From Any Creams. Relief From Swim In Mediterrean. Suggest
I have had eczema around my ankles and legs for more than 20 years. All kinds of cream, prescribed by dermatolgists through the years (and hydrocortisone, calamine lotion, etc), and nothing has worked -- except a swim in the Mediterrean years ago (and the rash vanished for a month). Now the area looks rather green woozy with a dozen or so bloody bumps. Anything possible that will help?

Hi, it appears that you have uncontrolled diabetis, or hypertension. Or you might be using socks, since long which may be allergic to you. Deficiency of certain foods may cause this. Now it appears that you have secondary infection with the bacteria.I advise you to consult an allergy specialist for diagnosis and treatment.
I advise you to avoid taking fish and sea foods, which tend to be allergic to many people. Thank you.
