The patch has multiple colors (shades of tan, brown, black, or even blue/red).
At 67, the skin produces less oil (sebum). This makes the back particularly prone to "Asteatotic Eczema," where the skin cracks like a dried-up riverbed.
This is a specific type of dermatitis that creates coin-shaped patches.
Apply a thick, fragrance-free cream (not a thin lotion) within three minutes of exiting the shower.
The spot is larger than a pencil eraser (6mm).
