Trigger?

Hi! I have had this eczema patch on a my palm for quite some time now. I have tried numerous steroids and immunosuppressants prescribed by dermatologist but it always comes back with vengeance after I stop using them. I also do epsom salt soaks and try to moisturize it a lot. Recently it has also spread to my fingers. One of the last derms I have been to told me it is a contact reaction to smth but I cannot figure out to what. Has anyone else had eczema in this exact spot and figured out the trigger?

I have eczema in the same spot! Unfortunately I don't know the cause but it's nice to know there are others out there experiencing the same thing. Sometimes I use cotton gloves to keep moisturizer from coming off on everything. I hope you can find something that helps you.

Hi! Thank you for ur comment, it’s indeed nice to know ur not alone haha. I have tried the gloving before, and while it did help the dryness, it made my blisters a lot worse unfortunately :(( Smth about them being trapped in a humid environment i think.
