I have been suffering from Schefflera for almost a year. My condition is much better now than before, but there are still many small bubbles in my palms. I want to know.

The scientific name of tinea manuum is tinea manuum, which is a hand disease caused by fungus and can be contagious. Compared with tinea pedis, tinea manuum is less likely to cause secondary serious bacterial infection.

Based on the information in your picture, it is judged that you are suffering from vesicular tinea manuum, which mostly starts on one side. Starting from a certain part of the palm, it is a pinhead-sized blister with thick and shiny walls and clear liquid inside. The blisters gather in groups or spread out, causing conscious itching. After the blisters dry, they desquamate and gradually spread to the surrounding areas, forming annular or multi-annular lesions with clear edges. The course of the disease is often chronic and can last for many years until it affects the entire palm and spreads to the back of the hand and nails, and even to the opposite palm. Sometimes blisters can become infected and form pustules.

Treatment methods:

1. For vesicular and scaly type, miconazole cream, clotrimazole cream, compound benzoic acid liniment, compound resorcin liniment, etc. can be used externally. For thickened keratinization, compound benzoic acid ointment, miconazole cream or 10% glacial acetic acid can be used for soaking. If there are cracks, urea grease can be added. After the skin lesions subside, continue to apply the medicine for more than 2 weeks.

2. For patients with a long course of disease or poor local treatment effect, oral griseofulvin, ketoconazole or fluconazole, itraconazole, terbinafine and other drugs should be added for treatment.

Try to avoid scratching and scalding with hot water in daily life. Avoid contact with various detergents, soaps and organic solvents.

Tinea of ​​hands can be treated and cured, but if it does not heal after a long period of treatment, it is recommended to go to a professional and regular dermatology hospital for careful examination and timely treatment to avoid delaying the condition.

I wish you a speedy recovery, I’m glad to be able to help you and hope you can give it a try!
