I have a minor skin problem on my hands. What could it be?

Asked by Male, 30 · 1 day ago

A minor skin problem on the hands can be due to common causes like dryness, irritation from soaps or detergents, mild allergy, or conditions such as Contact Dermatitis or a mild fungal infection. It usually shows as itching, redness, small rashes, or rough skin. You can start by keeping your hands well moisturised, avoiding harsh chemicals, using gentle soaps, and wearing gloves while doing household work. If needed, a mild soothing or anti-allergic cream may help, but avoid using strong steroid or mixed creams without medical advice. If the problem lasts more than 1-2 weeks, spreads, or worsens, it is best to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.
