Symptoms of Dyshidrotic Eczema

Definition
Dyshidrotic eczema is a condition in which small blisters that cause intense itching develop on the hands and feet.

Symptoms
• Intense itching at the site of the blistering.
• Cracks or fissures on the fingers or toes.
• Pain may occur with larger blisters.

Causes, incidence, and risk factors
The cause of dyshidrotic eczema is not known, but it occasionally appears to be seasonal. Small fluid-filled blisters called vesicles appear on the hands and feet. They are most common along the edges of the fingers, toes, palms and soles. The vesicles produce intense itching. Scratching leads to skin changes with thickening. Scratching may also lead to secondary infections.

Treatments vary: Creams, Powders, Ointments, and Medications exist. Eczema is also affected by stress, lifestyle choices, diet, and other factors. Remember that your overall mental health and attitude will always affect the quality of life of those suffering from chronic conditions.This website exists to provide information
