Thanks, guys. And yeah, they start as skin colored itchy bumps, and then turn slightly red. My elbows aren’t dry, but these, whatever they are, do get at least a little dry after they’ve been there for a couple of days. They don’t get very large, thankfully (usually about the size of a dime), but they can take up to a week or more to fully disappear. For moisturizer, I use Salcura Zeoderm for my face (otherwise I get flakes from what I assume is seborrheic dermatitis) and I am in love with it for that reason. It also says that it’s good for eczema and psoriasis, so I put some on the bumps last night and it definitely took the itch out.
Right now, the soap I use is Vanicream, which is specifically designed for sensitive skin, as far as I know. I also don’t know if it’s relevant or not, but there’s a slightly red patch on my face that never goes away and the skin is definitely a different texture when I don’t moisturize with the Zeoderm. Upon really close inspection when not using the Zeoderm, there are weird little “spikes”, for lack of a better term. You can’t see them without looking really close or anything, but again, it’s always slightly red there no matter what. So maybe it’s related?
Dunno, but definitely time to see a dermatologist. Thanks for all of your comments.
