Rashes On Inside Of Wrist, Itching. Taking Prednizone. Recommendations?
I have a rash on the insides of my wrist and in between my fingers. it itches and seeps clear liquid. It has been there for 3 months. it seems to clear up some then breaks out worse. started on my wrist (inside) then in between my fingers. now its on my fingers. its gets red and itchy then seeps. I have tried everything over the counter. even 2 rounds of prednizone pills. I went to my doctor twice but nothing has helped. I have no health insurance.

Hi,
Rash on your hands fingers may be allergic or irritation.
Means irritant contact dermatitis or allergic contact dermatitis.
Thorough history taking, clinical examination and blood investigations should be done.
For that you consult dermatologist.
Remove the cause if it is found.
After perfect diagnosis, antihistaminics,steroids may be taken.
Local application of steroid with antibiotics cream would be helpful.
Avoid soap bath.
I hopr you will be benefitted.
Thanks.
