Ezcema after Acceptance into USNA?

[TC1117]

I accepted my offer of appointment to the Naval Academy and had just begun working out again at a public gym after having quarantined for a year. I was told by my doctors that I don’t have ezcema, but am getting checked up soon again because I got a patch on my calf that had a clump of red spots filled w clear liquid. What would happen if I were to get ezcema now after having accepted my spot at the USNA?

If you do not have history of eczema since childhood, you are not likely having it right now. "Filled w clear liquid" does not sound like eczema, more likely irritation by something else (bugs, pollen, dust etc). It could disappear soon, if not, or start to pop up more often and else where, then see doctor.

The correct answer is:

Q = What would happen if I were to get ezcema (eczema)now after having accepted my spot at the USNA?
A = You would be DQ by DoDMERB and would require a medical waiver by the USNA
