Chronic Sweaty Hands, Red Spots On Palms. Treatment?
I have chronic sweaty hands and have all my life. the past couple of years in the Spring when my hands do sweat alot, I get these small red spots under the surface of the palms of my hands. You can only feel them when you run your finger over them. They almost look like prickly heat spots. Can you tell me what they might be? Thanks.
