Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Relax and make yourself stress-free. Dyshidrotic eczema is also known as dyshidrosis. It occurs due to epidermal skin barrier dysfunction.

  1. Apply liquid paraffin lotion during the day for 14 days.

  2. Apply Venusia Max cream (moisturiser) twice daily for 14 days.

  3. Apply Mometasone-F cream at night for 10 days.

  4. Moisturise your skin frequently.

  5. Reduce exposure to irritants.

  6. Avoid the use of detergents/harsh soaps/frequent hand washing.

  7. Use cotton gloves.

I hope this helps.

Kindly follow up if you have more concerns.

Thank you.
