Dyshidrosis treatment in Cuauhtémoc

Dyshidrosis, also known as dyshidrotic eczema, is a skin condition that produces small blisters on the palms of the hands, the sides of the fingers and, sometimes, the soles of the feet. It usually comes and goes in flare-ups.

Common symptoms: tiny itchy blisters, redness and, upon drying, scaling or cracks in the affected skin.

Contributing factors: stress, contact with certain materials, humidity, or sweating may be related to the flare-ups.

Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist is the one who identifies this type of eczema and provides guidance on managing it; in children, pediatric dermatology is involved. If you notice repeated flare-ups on the hands or feet, a professional evaluation will help you clarify the condition and take better care of your skin.
