10 Symptoms Of Nummular Eczema
Symptom #6: Crusty Skin
Usually, dead skin cells will usually just fall away, exposing the fresh, new skin cells below. This helps to keep our skin healthy and looking good, but some medical conditions will have a detrimental effect on the skin. In cases of nummular eczema, the affected areas of the skin can actually become quite crusty.
This crustiness, as gross as it may sound, is largely down to the leaked fluid from blisters drying out. The skin can become dry and scaly, causing some discomfort as well as looking unsightly. Patients with the condition will often try and cover the affected areas because of their unsightly nature.
