Experiencing Red, Rough And Burnt Skin On One Finger And Dry, Crackling, Painful Skin On The Other. Help?
I am experiencing two skin issues on my right hand . One is on the top of my pointer finger . It is round red, feels rough and like it is burned (but I did not burn it). The second issue is between my middle and fourth fingar. The skin is very dry, crackling and painful. I do not know why this happened but more importantly I want to get them healed and avoid this from happening again. Thank you, T

hello
from your description, it seems that you most likely have eczema.
it will be important to apply a moisturizer thrice a day and also apply a prescription strength steroid cream like clobetasol.
it will be best to consult your dermatologist for the same.
take care.
