  https://eczema.org/information-and-advice/types-of-eczema/pompholyx-eczema-2/

  Pompholyx eczema (also known as dyshidrotic eczema) is a type of eczema that affects the hands and feet. It involves the development of intensely itchy, watery blisters, affecting the sides of the fingers, the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. […] Any obvious trigger for the pompholyx flare should be avoided as far as possible, especially in the case of a contact allergy. […] Emollients (medical moisturisers) are a first-line treatment and should be used for moisturising and washing. […] Pompholyx eczema needs to be treated with topical steroids to reduce inflammation and heal cracks. […] For severe pompholyx eczema, a dermatology referral may be required for treatment and/or diagnosing contact allergy through patch testing. […] Alitretinoin (known as Toctino) is an oral treatment licensed for use in adults with severe chronic hand eczema (including pompholyx) that has not responded to treatment with potent topical steroids. […] Phototherapy (UVB or PUVA), using either UVB or UVA rays administered by a special foot/hand light box, may be recommended if this treatment option is available locally to you. […] Occasionally, for very severe outbreaks of pompholyx eczema, a short course of oral steroid tablets is prescribed.

  Dyshidrotic eczema is the fifth-most common cause of hand eczema, according to a 2015 study. […] We do not have a cure, but we have many good treatments and many more in development, says Lio. Usually we can help people get their skin much better so that they can be comfortable and return to normal activities. […] While there is no cure for dyshidrotic eczema, as Lio says, you can manage most of the symptoms on your own with a doctors direction. […] Typically, we start with gentle skin care and avoiding triggers, he says. I have some favorite gentle cleansers to use instead of harsh soaps, some super-protective moisturizers, and even a gentle hand sanitizer. If that is enough and it can be for milder cases then we can get by without any medications at all. […] Dr. Kindred says that keeping skin moisturized is an important part of treating dyshidrotic eczema. Use lotions containing ceramides and then cover with a barrier ointment, such as petroleum jelly, she says.

  If bullae (blisters) are present, the following measures are appropriate: Apply compresses with Burow solution (10% aluminum acetate) in a 1:40 dilution until bullae resolve (usually within a few days) […] Compresses with a 1:10.000 solution of potassium permanganate are also effective […] Drain large bullae with a sterile syringe, and leave the roof intact […] Prescribe systemic antibiotics that cover Staphylococcus aureus and group A streptococci. […] Topical corticosteroids are the mainstay of treatment. Typically, class I steroids are administered initially, followed by class II or III steroids. Ointments penetrate the skin better than creams do, though patients may prefer creams during the day. Topical antipruritics with pramoxine are useful. […] Systemic corticosteroids can also be used. Either oral prednisone or intramuscular triamcinolone suspension may be administered for severe episodes. Tapering of prednisone can follow intramuscular treatment. Patients should be followed and their blood pressure checked 1 week after initiation of prednisone.

  Your dermatologist will create a treatment plan for you to follow at home. This treatment plan will be tailored to your individual needs and may include the following: […] Soaks and cool compresses: Medicated soaks and cool compresses can be very effective for drying blisters. You will apply these two to four times a day for 15 minutes at a time. […] Corticosteroid that you apply to your skin: After each soak or cool compress, youll likely need to apply a medicated cream or ointment, such as a prescription corticosteroid. This helps to reduce the inflammation and clear the blisters. […] Anti-itch medicine: An antihistamine pill or other anti-itch medicine can reduce your discomfort. Anything you can do to reduce scratching is helpful because scratching tends to worsen dyshidrotic eczema. One anti-itch medication that dermatologists frequently include in a treatment plan is pramoxine.

  But with more severe dyshidrotic eczema, medication and other treatments are necessary for symptom relief, say both doctors. […] We usually will add either a topical steroid or a nonsteroidal topical such as tacrolimus (Protopic) to cool things down, says Lio. […] These are among the medications that may be prescribed: Potent topical steroids such as clobetasol, fluocinonide (Lidex), halobetasol (Bryhali), and triamcinolone (Kenalog). […] If that is still not enough, we often use phototherapy with narrow band ultraviolet (UVB) light to cool the inflammation with a specialized light, Lio says. […] It may also be worth asking your doctor about patch testing on your skin to determine whether your dyshidrotic eczema has some type of allergic component. […] There are many natural moisturizers that can be soothing, such as sunflower seed oil and coconut oil, says Lio.

  Dyshidrotic eczema (DE) is a chronic eczematous palmoplantar dermatosis characterized by deep-seated vesicles and intense pruritus. DE is challenging to treat and often resistant to topical agents especially when associated with hyperkeratosis. Currently, there are no systemic therapies approved for the treatment of DE. Here, we present a case of DE successfully treated with upadacitinib, a Janus Kinase inhibitor (JAKi). […] Upadacitinib, an oral JAKi, was recently approved for moderate-to-severe AD. JAK signaling plays a key role in the immune dysregulation and barrier dysfunction characteristic of AD. The efficacy of upadacitinib in our case suggests that JAK signaling may also occupy a central role in DE pathogenesis, even in the absence of comorbid AD. Currently, there are no published reports of oral JAKi treatment for DE. […] This case highlights real-world complexity in diagnosis of palmoplantar dermatitis, importance of clinicopathologic correlation, and rapid and potent efficacy of upadacitinib for DE.
