I have been to my skin specialist for my toes which have shown some site of allergy, like itchy and blisters and he told me according to my skin allergy test I have what is called exema, I dont know what it is and i'm very scared can you please tell me the best way it can be treated?
Also I want to know if it could develope severly onto the rest of my body.

I believe excema is a rather contagious infection. I had it once when I was 12 on my nose... but it was treated with an antibiotic cream. No need to worry... just ask the doctor or pharmacist what you need to treat it. It should go away within a week or two.

Maybe now is the time to go and have the skin diagnosed. Dermatologist rely on sight-seen diagnoses and are experts. Is something prohibiting you from a visit?
