I have a small coin shaped spot on the back of my arm (red in color) it looks like a ring worm (BUT DOES NOT ITCH). It just feels like this dry circle, I did some internet searching and I think it could be Numular Exzema, considering I have exzema on my lower legs....and I also have bad dry skin...

I also get small coin shaped spots on the top part of my legs too that do not itch...I have only noticed this since the begining of winter (they are a little pink but mostly just flesh colored spots that feel like dry skin)

It does sound like numular eczema. Most skin conditions are worse in the winter/dry months. You may want to try OTC Hydrocortisone 3 times a day. However, a stronger steroid eg. Triamcinolone, would be more effective. If it doesn't itch or bother you you needn't do anything. Skin conditions are difficult to describe and a picture is worth a thousand words; have an MD look at/treat it.

Please, do not try to guess what it is--please make an appt. with your doctor as soon as possible to see what it is-and get it taken care of properly. Take care.
