Accepted Answer

Atopic Dermatitis?: Your description is very suggestive of Atopic Dermatitis or Eczema. This condition tends to worsen with changes in weather, humidity, use of strong detergents or harsh body soap. Sometimes it may get super infected with bacteria or fungus. If moisturizers don't improve rapidly the condition, I suggest to see a doctor.

Difficult problem: Olecranon bursitis/infections can be very difficult to cure.  His doctor will need to aspirate and culture out the pus (if he/she hasn't done that already) to find the right antibiotic. Sometimes these need to be treated with intravenous antibiotics and sometimes require surgery.
