Sensitive dry and wrinkled fingers/hands
My fingertips started getting sensitive and have since turned into a dulled sense of touch. I can still feel but it is dulled. My fingers and hands are really dry and wrinkled like I have been in the shower. The wrinkles won't go away even with lotion several times per day. This is on both hands and has been this way for 2 weeks. What is this?

You may be suffering from hand eczema which is a kind of irritant contact dermatitis due to use of detergents during washing of clothes or utensils. Cracks and thickened skin on palms can also be due to psoriasis. Please avoid detergent for some time. You can call me or do online consult with photos for detailed prescriptions and other instructions to reduce the recurrence.
