The Nummular Eczema Picture

Nummular or discoid eczema causes disk-shaped patches to appear on the lower leg. Nummular eczema may appear as a ringworm-like rash of circular, itchy, scaling patches, widespread on the arms and legs but may also be found on the trunk and buttocks. Nummular eczema is most common in older people with very dry skin.
