What Is The Red Patch Of Extremely Dry And Numb Skin Below My Knee?
I am a caucasion 26 year old male.
Recently, I have discovered a reddish patch of extremely dry, and very numb skin about 3 inches below my knee. Leading up to my knee from there is skin that is considerably drier than normal, and somewhat numb.
What does this mean?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that this could be eczematous lesion and this can be treated with steroid containing cream, and the best option would be "Mometasone cream" try this and if the symptom does not improved then you need to see the dermatologist, have a nice day.
