persistent rash

I've had a bumpy, itchy rash on my elbows for over 2 months now.  It started in a small area of my elbow and now covers a much larger area, going up my bicep some, and also is appearing on my knees.  It's incredibly itchy, despite the fact that i put lotion and hydro cortisone cream on it several times a day.  The bumps are initially the same color as the rest of my flesh but then become red after a while and now seem to be bigger and splotchy.   I don't have health insurance right now and don't want to pay to see a doctor if there's something i can do to take care of this on my own.  Any suggestions?
