Rash on both my arms last week and i don't know what i did. could this be eczema?

If you have eczema: If you have eczema already, this may well be a flare-up or a secondary infection. People with eczema are more likely to develop allergy to contact allergens at the skin surface. You did not mention whether the rash was an itchy one or not.
