I have been suffering from Eczema for 8 years now, and it sounds like the symptoms are the same as yours. I have it on my hands, my left hand is the worse. I was prescribed a steroid hydrocortisone at the beginning but I stopped using because prolonged use of the steroid has side effects. I switched to regular, over the counter1% hydrocortisone, and it works just as well. I have tried both cream and ointment, and many different brands, and I have found one that works the best. I buy Target brand 1% anti-itch ointment, it is cheap, and it does the job. You will notice positive results after only one day of using it.
GOOD LUCK!

Google pityriasis rosea. I just picked that up and I've been told that it could last anywhere from 2 to 18 weeks.
