Hi,
You are most probably having a type of eczema known as pompholyx. To treat the same, use a steroid cream(mometasone or betamethasone ) for few days along with a moisturiser. If it is too itchy, take oral antihistaminic like cetirizine. It will take few days to respond. Hope that solves your query. Take care.
