another eczema question

in September 2011 Moms

In your experience, does eczema start off as a pink spot, then turn white? 

T had a single pink dry spot, that was small. Then it got a little larger, but stayed this size for about a week. Took her to the pedi (who first mentioned ringworm, but concluded with eczema) and got some cream.

Now, that particular spot is white and another spot has appeared (started off pink) that it currently turning white. I will be making another trip to the pedi but I wanted to see what you ladies thought. Is the cream not working? Weird, right? 

PS- been using the cream for about 2 1/2 weeks now

    I am far far FAR from an eczema expert, but in my experience with E I'd have to say no. His just seems to go back and forth from being red/raised/inflamed to pretty much nothing. I guess sometimes it might get a little dry in the transition, but I haven't seen anything really white (yet!). Let me know what happens! This skin stuff is baffling to me.

    None of Ry's spots have turned white. Let us know what the Pedi says!

    From experience with my kids and personal experience, it can. What happens is it is red and irritated at first. If it oozes any, it can dry out and turn white.

    Me too! Im also a little concerned because every time i put the cream on her leg, she says "oww, hurt"

    Also, nothing is oozing. Its just red for a few days, then turns white. And occasionally it turns red again when getting a bath or being outside
