I have a dime sized round red spot on the back of my leg between the knee and ankle. It has grown to twice the size since I noticed it. It started as a red blister. It was itchy at first. I scratched off the blister which had a clear liquid. Since then it has scabbed over, lost the scab and now has a whitish crust over the red. The white crusted portion falls off after time and seems to return. it has probably been a month or longer since I first noticed the red itchy blister. It no longer itches. 3/26/2014
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor! From what you have described, it looks like you are suffering from a fungal infection. Don't worry as it is completely curable. Potent antifungal medicines are available which will help you get rid of it. If I were your treating doctor, I'd would -1. Ask you to take an antifungal tablet2. Ask to apply antifungal cream over it twice daily for 10 days3. Ask you to keep the area completely Chat Doctor. 4. Reassure you that it will be cured, even though it may take a week or so or may require a change of antifungal cream or addition of a steroid.5. You may also require an antihistamines tablet like cetirizine if the itching it troubling you. Hope Ive solved your query. Feel free to ask if you have any doubt.
