If you have no useful contribution, why must you create complications. PV is just a rash and may even disappear if left untreated for a while. Here's a case of prolonged skin condition and all you can say is asking a stupid question which the patient is unlikely to understand. Very unprofessional I must say.
SMH for u.

First of all, note that eczema is a chronic problem that causes inflammation of the skin’s outer layer. Eczema can be caused by excessive stress, allergies, dehydration, dandruff, changes in weather, hormonal changes in the body and other factors. Symptoms of eczema include redness, itching, dryness, blistering, bleeding and scabbing. Often eczema leaves behind ugly scars, which take a lot of time to disappear if not treated.

Instead of using antibiotics or lotions, try some of these easy natural treatments for eczema scars. These treatments can give you relief from pain and itching associated with eczema and lighten or eliminate unsightly scars.
