How I Treat Nummular Eczema

Abstract

Nummular eczema usually consists of round patches of vesicular, oozing or crusting dermatitis over the extremities. Drugs and disease can produce such eczema. Withdrawing offending drugs and treating underlying disease are often the first steps in management. Also, local steroid creams, antihistamines, tranquilizers and bath oils help control the skin lesions.
