my dr. said my red hands were eczema, which might explain the redness, and the itchiness, but it doesn't explain the achiness or weakness in my hands, and it doesn't explain why my wrist is sore and my knuckles are red. i thought it could be RA because it happens in my left foot a little bit, as well, but idk. if there are any dermatologists on here, please help answer this!

There are no health care professionals here that can reply or give diagnosis, but I wonder if you have looked into psoriatic arthritis?
