I have that with my eczema and it can be sooo anoying with the blisters continuously appearing and oozing which can be painfull sometimes. Mabey speak to your doctor about this and they might be able to prescribe you some ointment. Just remember don't use harsh soaps,creams or perfumes on the affected area as it can make it worse.

Good luck!!

It's full title is pomphylx eczema so it is linked. I have had problems in the past with palms of hands, changing washing powder from Persil Non-bio to Fairy non-bio solved this. Currently have patches on soles of feet that are very difficult to permanently shift. My GP said it's linked to hot damp conditions so wear flip flops indoors rather than slippers, that helped a bit!

I suffered from pomphylx on my hands and feet for over 15 years but all under control now, any tiny mark arrives on my hands or feet and I straight away reach for betnovate ointment and it sorts it out within hours I wash with e45 wash and take an antihistamine every morning ( fexofenadine hydrochloride 180mg) this stops any itch and helps my body reacting with what ever causes this condition. Hope this helps. I have seen so many specialists over the years and could not find the cure but a lady in an airport lounge came over to me and had the cure written on a piece of paper and told me that I should go to doctor and ask for them items and wow it works a treat so please have a go. I always use a cotton glove under latex gloves for any washing -up or detergents that I use just incase, hope you find your cure as it is a really bad condition and I feel for you.

all the best and I hope it clears up soon

Sitting here at 4am trying not to tear my hands apart! This flared up again just when I thought it had gone and have absolutely no idea what has caused it. Started two years ago after the sudden death of my brother so put it down to that, but why has it come back now???? Have never suffered a skin condition in my life before this horrible experience

Are you washing your hands more frequently than normal?
