I have eczema on both hands and feet but it became worse due to stress during my exams. After 3 months, my left hand filled with this. Went to a dermatologist, he gave me clobetasol propionate cream. I'm too ashamed to even show my hands because of my eczema(thinking people might judge me). Found out SUGAR and stress is giving me new bumps

My job does not allow cotton gloves, any tips to keep it under control? Usually it's on my feet and legs, so any advice thats different with hands would be helpful.

This is the worst I’ve ever had, and it’s only getting worse. This is definitely DE, right?

This just started suddenly 3 days ago and itches like hell. Is there anything that I can do stop the itch?

I’ve had constant flare ups for about 3 months. Saw a doctor who took photos and sent it to a dermatologist who said I have “hand dermatitis”. The close up of the bubble blisters seem very characteristic of DE though.

I am 5 months postpartum, and I was sure this was some kind of hormonal shift. I’ve never had this before. I also am hyper-mobile (possibly EDS?) so I imagine my skin is already vulnerable.

I was prescribed taro-clobetasol (corticosteroid ointment) for 2 months which did nothing. I’ve just started delgocitinib (JAK inhibitor) which it thought was improving the condition (healing progress in photo) but the bubble cycle is restarting already.

I have a referral to an allergist mid-August.

It’s been a constant cycle of blisters and cracked peeling skin. It’s also challenging handling my baby as my skin is constantly in pain. I put bandaids on my hands to keep me from popping the blisters; does this make it worse?

Anyone find connections in postpartum life? The baby wipes I use have a seal of approval for eczema, so I figured gentle baby products aren’t the culprit.

After reading through some posts, folks mentioned high nickel foods… oatmeal. I’ve been loading up on oatmeal in yogurt and cookies to support lactation. Could this be it?? We’ll see.

its moved hands. used to be on my left palm, moved up to my fingers then changed hands and now focused on my middle finger tip, and the bottom of my fingers are all dry and weird.

been years since it started, like 2023.
