my daughter has that and i have to use prescription cream to get rid of it but i also use aquaphor healing ointment it takes away the dryness then you can just use a small amount of concealer to blend away the red. i use almay concealer that blends to match your skin tone

Question by TravelingGal: Does eczema leave a discolored white scar?
I had a rash that I believe was eczema. Reason, I’ve had mild cases of it for years, but this year, I got it on my arm and after it went away, it left a pinkish white colored scar. I barely scratched it, but for some reason, the area looks white.

I have suffered from eczema since i was 5. I get these pinkish white scars too. They do fade away but they are usually more noticable when i am tanned and often when they fade away the area is white and the rest of my arm is tanned. If you have a tan this could be the reason the area looks white.
If you are really worried i would advise visiting your doctor to make an appointment with a dermatoligist. I had one a few years back and it was brilliant.

When you swim does your skin break out. Is it from the harsh chemicals in the pool, dirtiness, bacteria??? I always get bad eczema around my waist like red welts a few days after I swim at the gym. I can’t swim that often because of it.

Mine does…I get a red rash for about a day or two… I think a lot of it has to do with the high amounts of chems. in the pool.
