Hi.
As per your case history you are having eczema on leg.
It is a chronic eczema which has episodes of acute exacerbation leading to oozing.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't itch it. It will only worsen the condition.
2. Apply a antibiotic plus steroid cream like fucidin-B cream twice daily.
3. Oral antihistamine like levocetrizine can be taken for itching.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroids taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
