These can be very itchy to the pint that you injure yourself if you scratch them too hard. Another eczema symptom is dry flaking skin. This is the exact opposite of the weeping or oozing skin that is painful due to burst pustules. The dry scaling skin can turn thick and crusty due to excessive scratching.
