Thank you Conolly!
From how I see it there are at least three kinds there. One the biopsy was on is there five years at least, and doubled after they took a sample. Now it hurts slightly but it never did before. One on my foot started with a red dot, and grew.. None from the creams I have did anything to it... They all look bit dotty, really.
I think, I just need to wait till Wednesday to hear what my GP thinks.
That's exactly how EAC looks like, it changes with time. You could ask your GP to have a look on Medscape website.
"Skin findings are as follows:
Primary lesion: The eruption begins as erythematous papules that spread peripherally while clearing centrally. These lesions enlarge at a rate of approximately 2-5 mm/d to produce annular, arcuate, figurate, circinate, or polycyclic plaques, as shown in the images below. The margin, which is usually indurated, varies in width from 4-6 mm, and, often, a trailing scale is present on the inner aspect of the advancing edge. The diameter of the polycyclic lesions varies from a few to several centimeters. Vesiculation may be present.
Distribution: Lesions demonstrate a predilection for the thighs and the legs, but they may occur on the upper extremities, the trunk, or the face. The palms and the soles are spared.
Color: The lesions are pink to red with central clear areas. Occasionally, residual hyperpigmentation of dull red, brown, or violet is present. A case of EAC associated with hyperbilirubinemia and jaundice secondary to choledocholithiasis has been reported."
It's a long article and it's intended for professionals, so your GP will love it!
