Dermatitus on hand ?
Posted: 05-15-08 20:58pm

hey,

i have a weird rash on my hand... it happens once maybe twice a year around the same time, it starts to flair up around the middle of april every year for as long as i can remember... it happens quite bad on my right hand and minor amounts on my left hand.

it starts by small spots in random places, then it starts itching and as i scratch it (i know i shouldn't but its hard not too) it just gets worse... starts getting red and more spots appear, some that you cant really see, but as i run my hand across the back of my right hand it all feels bumpy etc

ive been looking up on the net as to what it could be but i cant find anything that it sounds like... i thought it could be that sun dermatitus or whatever it is, but this happens mid to late april every year wether its sunny or not. (it happened last year and we had very little sun)

it lasts a few months, last year it cleared up mid july after starting beginning of may, and by the middle of august it had started coming back, but not as bad and didn't last as long

i would provide some pic's what it looks like but its hardly anything at the moment and doesn't show up too well on pictures

any ideas what it could be? i would go to the doctors, but every time i go there they complain about other stuff which i can do without lol.

Thanks for any help Smile
