What could have caused these patches to develop on my arms?

Doctor's Answer

Hello and thank you for your photos. From the photos, it appear most consistent with discoid eczema. Other possibilities would be a fungal infection or other inflammatory conditions.

I would suggest seeing a dermatologist early so that an accurate assessment of your skin rash and discussion of your treatment options can be made. Hope this helps.

Best regards
