Health Queries

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

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.

I have had psoriasis and eczema affecting my legs and fingers for the last 5 years. I am currently taking fexofenadine and fluconazole. What oral medications and ointments are recommended?

Psoriasis and eczema affecting the legs and fingers can be controlled with the right combination of skin care and medicines, but treatment depends on which condition is active. Regular use of thick moisturisers is very important, along with medicated creams like mild-to-moderate topical steroids or non-steroid options, as advised by a doctor. Antihistamines like Fexofenadine can help with itching, but Fluconazole is only useful if there is a confirmed fungal infection and is not routinely needed for psoriasis or eczema. In more severe or persistent cases, doctors may prescribe short courses of oral medicines or light therapy. Avoid triggers like harsh soaps, frequent washing, stress, and scratching, and keep the skin well moisturised. It is best to consult a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and adjust your treatment safely.

I have psoriasis on my right leg with severe itching. How can I manage the symptoms and reduce itching?

Psoriasis on the leg with severe itching can be managed by keeping the skin well moisturised and using the right medicines regularly. Apply thick moisturisers several times a day and use medicated creams like mild-to-moderate topical steroids like Clobetasol or vitamin D?based creams such as Calcipotriol as prescribed. For itching, antihistamines like Fexofenadine may provide relief, especially at night. Avoid scratching, harsh soaps, and triggers like stress, dry weather, or skin injury, as they can worsen symptoms. Wearing loose cotton clothes and taking lukewarm baths can also help soothe the skin. If itching is severe or not improving, a dermatologist may suggest stronger treatments like combination creams or phototherapy.
