So I have severe eczema right now and I am taking a steroid cream and atarax, and they help a little as in the skin is more red and inflamed (about 35% of my legs), but not cracked and bleeding.
The thing that worries me is that it is severe and I found somewhere if you have it on your hands, you can be disqualified. I don't currently have it on my hands, but from 5th grade to 9th grade, I did have it on my left hand (back of the hand, center finger, and ring finger) plus a little bit around the wrist to pinky on the right hand. I've also had it on my elbow, knees, toes, back of the neck, and a small patch on my shoulder throughout my lifetime (it travels even though it supposedly doesn't.)
Does anyone know of anyone who has a severe case like me in The Army or any branch? I did score high on the practice test so does The Army make exceptions? I should be having my physical soon.
