hmmm...i thought that this is called atopic eczema? mine was at the side of all my 5 fingers on both hands and the side of my feet.

i used to take lots of oral steriods, and cream but these were very symptomatic. 2 wks later, it will flare up again.

had it all my life, childhood, teenagehood and young adulthood. but thank goodness, now i'm cured of it.

i started taking food supplement, this brand from Germany, FitLine and it slowly went away. my advice is, dont go for creams or drugs. lots of side effects.

FitLine is a food supplement, ie vitamins which are made from all natural fruits and vegetables. no steroids at all, and the range is approved by the International Olympic Council.

regarding pricing, ranges between rm45 to rm273.

thanks for the info. i dont think mine was Dyshidrosis. mine was definitely atopic eczema. my finger tips bled cos it cracked from dryness, not due to this skin problem.

but the atopic eczema i used to have was unsightful. fingers red, looking very infected.

i guess a lot of our health problems, we do not know exactly what caused it. most of the times are many factors put together.

last time, my skin on my palms and fingers peeled so badly till i didnt have finger prints. my skin on my palm peeled until i could lift up an entire skin!

i was shedding skin at least once a month.

well, that was what i did. medication did not help. it just 'covered' the problem for a few days, and 1 wk later, it is back.

minyak cap kapak? wouldnt your fingers feel stingy as your outer most layer of skin is gone?

i use minyak cap kapak to relieve the itch of mosquito bites
