Lamellar Dyshidrosis
Hand eczema can be caused by alergic contact dermatitis or irritant dermatitis to items or products that are frequently handled. Or it may be a manifestation of atopic dermatitis. Because the hands are constantly coming in contact with the world, and nowadays with constant Corona-related hand washing, the use of hand sanitizers and disinfecting agents, hand irritation and eczema is being seen more frequently in my practice. In most case, if it persists, it needs to be evaluated and treated by a dermatologist.
