Treatment Info |
| Condition / reason: | | dyshidrosis |
| Dosage & duration: | | twice daily (dosage frequency: twice daily) for the period of two weeks |
| Other conditions: | | noce |
| Other drugs taken: | | None | | |
Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | The resulting small, fluid-filled blisters (vesicles) most commonly occur on the palms and fingers of your hands and on the soles and toes of your feet. The blisters usually last for three to four weeks.
The blisters often cause intense itching. Scratching the blisters can damage the skin and, in some cases, lead to infection. Once the blisters dry, they often leave cracks and painful grooves (fissures) in your skin.
Risk factors
Dyshidrosis occurs twice as often in women as in men. Other risk factors include:
* Stress, because dyshidrosis appears to be more common during times of stress
* Exposure to metal salts, such as chromium, cobalt and nickel — usually through cement or mechanical work
* Having seasonal allergies, such as hay fever
* Frequently exposing your skin to water or other wet substances
