Eczema Treatment Care

Question by Lucy Zhao: Doctor gave me wrong diagnosis?
So i went to the doctor the other day. i have these clumps of really small bumps on my arm. the doctor went to go seek a second opinion. they said it was nummular eczema. i looked up pictures online. i couldnt find a single picture that looked like what i had on my skin. the doctor didnt even do a skin biopsy. she just felt it, and asked me where it was. only on my arms. what do you think i have or do you think the diagnosis is correct? the clumps are about the size of a quarter and smaller. there are a lot of tiny bumps. they feel grip tape on skate boards, just bigger bumps. they are skin color. the same color as my skin. one day i just noticed them and there has been more and more. on both arms. doctor gave me prescription but it isnt working. been about 2 weeks, and there are more since the visit. help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they dont itch. they just bother me, because my friends are starting to notice too!

I have eczema around my mouth with gold flakes, my doctor gave me flucloxacillin capsules, should i be getting loads of white flakes now? Because i’ve been taking these tablets for 3 days, and i dont have golden flakes anymore, i just have plenty of white flakes, does this mean its getting better?

(suffered from eczema around my mouth for 6 whole months now!)
