10 Symptoms Of Nummular Eczema
Symptom #9: Yellow Crust
As already mentioned, there is a chance that lesions caused by nummular eczema can become infected, and the most common culprit is the Staphylococcus aureus bacterium. This infection is likely to cause pus to come out from the lesion, and this pus will dry and form a hard, yellow crust over the affected area.
As unpleasant as this is, it is thankfully not too difficult to treat and a course of antibiotics is often all that is needed. While it is fairly easy to treat, though, it should be done as soon as possible because it can spread, and Staphylococcus aureus infections can become particularly nasty.
