Based on this, you may be dealing with a form of localized chronic eczema (like dyshidrotic eczema) or an exaggerated hyper-reactivity to insect bites. However, for a proper diagnosis and to confirm if it is a contagious condition like scabies as suggested on the panel, we need a high-resolution microscopic assessment of the skin burrows and a dynamic review of your daily contact allergens.
Health Tips
To accurately review high-resolution images of your hand rash, check for specific allergy triggers, and provide an immediate, targeted medical plan to completely stop the itching, please book a direct consultation session via my Practo profile."
