Summer brings excitement for outdoor activities, but for those with eczema—particularly dyshidrotic eczema—it can be challenging. This condition often flares up in spring due to allergies, causing small, itchy blisters to appear on the fingers, toes, palms, and soles.
Eczema, or dermatitis, affects around 35 million Americans. While it often begins in childhood, it can persist into adulthood.
Common symptoms include red, swollen skin and fluid-filled bumps that may ooze and form a crust. Though eczema isn’t contagious, it is hereditary and frequently triggered by allergies.
