Contact dermatitis
I have contact dermatitis.
If i have to wash hand frequently it gets flared or by any other irritant. I have a small daughter so i have to make her bath or clean her it aggravates.
It itches very badly at night.
So far have used venusia, elocon ( 5 days at night) but it flares.
Please help me and suggest measures . Its affecting quality of life. As its my right hand and my daughter is just 3.10. i have to restart my teaching job.

Hi there
Understand your problem and empathise with your predicament.
However, prevention is better than cure.
While you can't avoid some things, you can surely consider using cotton liners 🧤 inside rubber gloves and limit your washing stuff strictly to 3-4 times a day and don't touch detergent outside of this schedule.
For more detailed discussion and treatment, do consider an ONLINE INSTANT Consultation on this portal for a quick resolution 🙏
