Location of the lesions: face, skin folds, limbs.

Jagged eczema lesions.

No infectious contact or animals.

• Psoriasis:

Found in typical locations: elbows, knees, lumbar region, scalp, +- nails with a context or history of psoriasis, without the atopic context or animal contact.

Histology if necessary.
