I'm 14, and I've had this for about a month now. After you wash it, let it air out and be very gentle with the blisters, DONT POP THEM!! I've tried this and it just makes them burn, hope this helps
Hello,
Apply mild steroid cream and if the bump itches, then you can take some antihistaminic like Benadryl.
I hope that helps. Take care and regards.
Thank you for your response. The itching is under control and the clusters are gone, but now one big fluid-filled blister surrounds my finger nail. Should I just keep the area clean and wait for it to recede?
Hello,
For dyshidrotic eczema, wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps.
For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone as dermacort), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide). These are available under prescription. Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Use good quality moisturizers to prevent moisture loss from the skin.
If still the symptoms do not improve then please get a clinical examination done by a dermatologist.
I hope this helps Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
