Answer 1

Sounds like eczema. Oatmeal, I know, isn't very good for eczema. Oatmeal drys out the skin. You want a moisturizer with a menthol. Sarna, for example, is a non steroid menthol lotion for temporary relief of eczema. You should also see a Dermatologist, who can write a script for a topical which will clear up eczema.

Sounds like a skin infection. Usually red blotches are a sign of this.

If the blotches are circular, it is ringworms, which is a skin infection that can be treated with a doctor prescribed cream.

if it is an infection, have your doctor prescribe Cephelexin 43/500 mg lightgreen/darkgreen oblong sized pill 4 times a day (breakfast, lunch, dinner, before you sleep). It is manufactured by Aurobindo Pharma USA, Inc. located in Cranbury, NJ.

Defiently go to a Dermatoligist and have them check it out. In the meanwhile you can use a Hydracortisone Cream such as Cortaid to relieve the itching. My 2 yr. old son has Dermatitis which causes severe itching and this has relaxed him when he get those itching attacks. Good Luck!
