I've had this eczema relentlessly on and off for weeks now. The doctor has prescribed a mild steroid cream, but I've read online that you shouldn't use these creams if your eczema is infected.
I'm worrying dreadfully that I'm going to come down with a fever all of a sudden due to this eczema/dermatitis. I can feel the lymph nodes at the end of my forearm and I can't keep myself from checking them.
I used a mobile phone flashlight and it seems that my pinky finger is seeping a slightly yellowish ooze. Earlier I had a very strange symptom that I could feel my pulse in that finger and when I looked at it it flashed red along with my heartbeat.
Please tell me what you think...

My skin is not crusty, nor are there any signs of yellowness around the wounds. Just that pinky finger is weeping and the pus looks slightly yellow under a white light.

The rash on my wrist is oozing slightly, but it looks like a clear fluid.
My hand looks shiny because I have applied an emollient to keep it moist. My skin is no longer dry at all, just red and itchy.
