Question

Could the rash on my skin be eczema? Over the course of the winter, I have developed a rash on my face that seems to be getting worse. It started in the colder months with peeling and reddened nose and cheeks after a shower. It has slowly evolved to small reddened and raised bumps (worse after shower) that stay red all day. My skin is still peeling. I am no longer using any acids or anti aging on my skin at all. What could it be?

Hello and thank you for your question! Unfortunately, it is very hard to tell from pictures whether the symptoms you are experiencing are from Eczema or something else. When we examine the skin, we not only look at appearance, but we also feel the area, and take a closer look under magnification or with other tools. We can also take cultures or do other tests to determine what you are experiencing, so that we choose the best treatment course for you. We hope you are doing better, but we are always here to help if you need it!
