[|Human|] I ve had a bump on my leg for years. Every now and then it itches and the top layer of skin will slough off leaving a red exposed wound. It only bleeds if I squeeze or pick at it, but I can tell it s an actual hole and when the skin heals there is still a bump, but the last month or two it won t heal. It scabs over, but itches and if the scab comes off there is just a hole that oozes clear, sometimes red. But it won t go away. It keeps busting open, then healing, then busting open again. I can see under the layers of my skin. It s the size of pen tip just about.

Based on your query data, In my opinion, Dear You seem to suffer from Venus Ulcer with Eczema with accompanied dermatitis, which explains the typical history of your case. Proximity of the shin-bone and the Venus lump of legs causes repeated crusting / scabbing / itching and oozing wounds with a pen tip hole over the wound. Color Doppler study would fix the DVT or the incompetent perforating vein which is causing this Venus Ulcer in the Saphenous Vein System of the leg.ELT(Endoscopic Venus Laser ablation Treatment of the incompetent valves with Polyvinyl springs blocking the feeder vein would fix this Venus Ulcer wound with Venus Eczema in your case. Treatment of the perforator vein to block the Venus lump would resolve the issue for lifetime. Rest/Elevation/Veno-Stockings with antibiotics and wound care prior to planned ELT with spring or Polyvinyl balls embolism blocking the feeder vein would be needed in your case.
