Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I started to have tiny holes in my palm a few months ago. They do not hurt and are symptomless. And also, they do not spread anywhere.

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

It is allergic dermatitis (hand eczema). I suggest you apply Tenovate cream (Clobetasol) at night for 15 days, Venusia Max (butter of Shea, Aloe, Cocoa, and Mango) moisturizer twice to thrice daily for 15 days, and T-Bact ointment (Mupirocin) at daytime for 15 days.

Kindly avoid scratching and rubbing lesions, moisturize the area regularly, avoid contact with harsh chemicals, friction, injury to hands, allergens, or irritant products.

I hope this helps you.

Regards.
