Last update, had an e-visit with a NP who said it sounded like dishydrotic ezcema, hooray guessing skills. Got prescribed a steroid cream which insurance refuses to cover, and a dermatologist appointment next week. I wash my hands, pat them dry, cover them in lotion or petroleum jelly, and cover the fingertips in bandages, and honestly it's just slowly getting worse. Cotton gloves dried my hands out in minutes. US health insurance is BS.
- cloverich 2y agoMy wife actually developed this in her late twenties (now 39). She hasn't had much luck keeping it from slowly progressing, but it comes and goes in waves. Lotion / steroid helps a little but nobody has a good solution for it, yet. She works w/ her hands and it hasn't limited her, but is frustrating. I don't have anything helpful really but feel free to reach out (email in bio) if you want me to put you in contact w/ my partner just to have someone to chat with about it. Best of luck in managing it.
