Abstract

Background: Dermatitis of the palms and soles is a skin condition characterized by inflammation, redness, scaling, and sometimes itching or pain in these areas. It can manifest in various forms, such as dyshidrotic dermatitis, hyperkeratotic palmar dermatitis, or contact dermatitis. Dyshidrotic dermatitis often presents as small, itchy blisters on the palms and soles, which may rupture and cause crusting. Hyperkeratotic palmar dermatitis, on the other hand, is marked by thickened, scaly skin and painful fissures, primarily on the palms. Contact dermatitis can result from exposure to irritants or allergens, leading to localized inflammation. Factors like frequent handwashing, exposure to harsh chemicals, or underlying conditions such as atopic dermatitis can contribute to the development of this condition. Treatment typically involves identifying and avoiding triggers, using topical corticosteroids or emollients, and in severe cases, systemic medications or phototherapy. Early diagnosis and management are essential to prevent complications and improve quality of life
